New York, NY, April 29, 2011 --(PR.com)-- Sites of the World’s Culture Series Teotihuacán: City of the Gods Available on DVD May 31, 2011

Kultur is proud to announce the DVD release from the Sites of the World’s Culture Series; Teotihuacán: City of the Gods on DVD available May 31, 2011.

As with many of the pre-Spanish civilizations of Central and South America there are more questions than answers surrounding the culture of Teotihuacán. From village communities, at around 200 BC, there developed an urban civilization in the highlands of Mexico. Over the centuries it produced huge, precisely constructed pyramids for cultic purposes. In the 8th century AD Teotihuacán suffered a catastrophic collapse. At its zenith this now legendary ruined city extended over 20 square kilometers and was thus larger than Imperial Rome.

Nobody knows what language its inhabitants spoke, or what people they belonged to. No writing has been found, nor has the name of any ruler. This revealing film follows the traces of a forgotten society and contrasts them with the surviving Indian traditions of present-day Mexico.
