Since time immemorial, the Nevado de Toluca volcano has been a cultural reference for its surrounding landscape. In pre-Hispanic times, it was considered a living and sacred mountain, where deities lived to whom a special cult was rendered. Evidence of this symbolism has endured over time in archaeological remains and in the worldview of the region's inhabitants.
House of the gods, Nevado de Toluca is the third book derived from the investigations of the INAH Underwater Archaeological Project. With this work, an important step is taken in the knowledge of the ritual activities that took place inside the crater of the volcano.
