Ancient Teotihuacan murals reveal possible 2,000-year-old Uto-Aztecan language

A new study published in Current Anthropology may have solved one of the largest mysteries of ancient Mesoamerica—the language spoken in Teotihuacan, the vast metropolis that dominated central Mexico nearly two thousand years ago.

Researchers Christophe Helmke and Magnus Pharao Hansen of the University of Copenhagen now propose that Teotihuacan’s murals and artifacts preserve an early Uto-Aztecan language, the ancestor of later languages such as Cora, Huichol, and Nahuatl—the language of the Aztecs.

During WWII, Mexican American youth—Chicanas and Chicanos especially those wearing zoot suits—were framed as internal threats to public order. Military personnel, police, and media collaborated to portray Chicano youth as criminals and unpatriotic, justifying violent crackdowns and mass arrests during the Zoot Suit Riots. Deportation sweeps like Operation We***ck (1954) were framed as national security responses.

Now (2025):
ICE and U.S. military are being deployed domestically in and under the pretense of border security and national stability, despite no national emergency declaration. Civilian police and federal immigration enforcement blur lines, making neighborhoods feel like occupied zones.
