Cerro Patlachique: Teotihuacan’s Lost Sacred Mountain Unveiled

High above the southern edge of the Teotihuacan Valley rises Cerro Patlachique, a peak now shown to have served as a major pilgrimage site where ancient Mesoamericans communicated with water deities. A new study published in Antiquity reveals that this forgotten mountain summit hosted elaborate shrines, carved monuments, and ceremonial architecture linked to rain gods and calendar rituals spanning more than 2,000 years. The discovery fundamentally reshapes understanding of Teotihuacan’s sacred landscape and its relationship with surrounding mountains.

Using cutting-edge lidar technology and ground surveys, archaeologists from the Project Plaza of the Columns Complex documented 34 previously unpublished carved monuments alongside architectural features including temple platforms, water reservoirs, and a ceremonial avenue aligned with Teotihuacan’s urban grid. The findings, described by researchers as “a predilect site of communication with the divine,” establish Cerro Patlachique as the southern counterpart to the famous Cerro Gordo peak that dominates Teotihuacan’s northern landscape.
