Paleontological Museum

The Paleontological Museum in Tocuila is a fossil historical center situated in Municipality of Texcoco, State of Mexico, centre Mexico. It shows some portion of one of the most extravagant stores of Late Pleistocene fauna in America. Worldwide gatherings of archeologists found an enormous amount of bones, for the most part mammoth remains, assessed to be 11,000 to 12,000 years of age, in an old stream mouth that used to stream into the Lake Texcoco.

The revelation of the site occurred by chance in 1996. While Joaquin Ramirez was directing the uncovering and development of a reservoir in the property of his sibling Celso, he saw that the earth being expelled was not quite the same as what he as a rule would discover when delving around there. Assuming it must be bones, he educated his sibling, who thusly, informed the National Institute of Anthropology and History. From that point forward numerous examinations have been led so as to clarify the enormous centralization of bones in the region. The Paleontological Museum in Tocuila was opened in November 2001, with the help of the property proprietors, the network, the University of Chapingo and the INAH.
