Tzintzuntzan


One of the so-called yácatas at the Tarascan (Purépecha) Tzintzuntzan ruins in MIchoacán. There are 5 such pyramids there, each of which originally had a small temple on top.
The Tarascans (Purépecha) were never conquered by the Aztecs. The Purépecha language is not related to any other language spoken in Mesoamerica.
