MEXICO CITY.- In a pharmaceutical company’s premises, located in the municipal district of Miguel Hidalgo of Mexico City, specialists from the National Institute of Anthropology and History (INAH-Conaculta) recovered two burials that are over 500 years old, as well as other ceramic remains. Given the possibility that there could be more pre Hispanic element findings in the area, INAH elaborated an archaeological salvage project that will take place in said area. The findings in the pharmaceutical company’s property, in the Granada residential area, where registered after the company’s workers dug a ditch of 80 centimeters [31.5 inches] wide, 10 meters [32.80 feet] long and 2 meters [6.56 feet] deep in the piece of land where they will build another corporate building. These discoveries were responsibly reported to INAH by the company, which allowed the finding to be handled by personnel of the Archaeological Salvage and Physical Anthropology Offices.
