Tula

Tula's archaeological site lies 80 kilometres north of Mexico City and used to be the capital city of the Toltecs. One of their main contributions was the development of the "interior space" concept, inherited to other cultures. The Toltecs achieved the building of magnificent rooms, which roofs were sustained by columns, an element unknown in Mesoamerica at the time. The probable capital of the ancient Toltec civilization is best known for its fearsome 4,5-high stone warrior figures.
