THEMA History and Archaeology
Synopsis The Sun Stone was buried in the Plaza de Armas by order of the archbishop of Mexico City a few years after the Conquest. A similar fate befell the equestrian statue of Charles IV, known as El Caballito, which was originally mounted on the Plaza Mayor, but was placed in several other locations before arriving at Plaza Tolsá in 1979. In this book, archaeologist Eduardo Matos Moctezuma recounts the details of the pilgrimage of both sculptures in search of rest.
