Avenue of the Dead

[edit]

I think this is an appropriate topic given the articles on Pyramid of the Sun, Pyramid of the Moon and Temple of the Feathered Serpent, Teotihuacan. However, I would recommend titling the article either "Miccaotli" (the Nahuatl name for the feature or "Avenue of the Dead, Teotihuacan" in the style of Temple of the Feathered Serpent, Teotihuacan, which specifies the site name for users unfamiliar with the Avenue of the Dead. However, this convention has not been used in a consistent fashion. I do not know of other features called "Avenue of the Dead" at other sites, so this is probably okay. I will leave it up to you (and to other Wikipedia editors).

One of the authors whose work you will find to be especially useful is Annabeth Headrick, who has written about the Avenue of the Dead in her book The Teotihuacan Trinity, with a special focus on the mortuary associations, especially with mummy bundles and Teotihuacan incensarios.
