This is an article about a skeleton buried with hundreds of loose bones, in Mexico City. I post it because of past questions on this subforum about how the Aztecs buried important leaders. I so not assume it will be of general interest, only for those who have an interest in Aztec burials.

A reminder that the skeleton found where I think the treasure is located was apparently intact. I had suggested burial of Moctezuma II as a possible reason for the excavation. Someone else said that they seemed to know where M-II was buried, and someone else said based on general burial practicies of the Aztecs of important people M-II would most likely have been cremated.

Nothing in this article seems to have an important connection with my theory, negative or positive.
