It is difficult to register. Gravity persists. The city centre of Ciudad de México is sinking as much as 50 cms per year in parts. Here the Aztecs built islands in the middle of Lake Texcoco by reinforcing mounds of soil and rubble with plants such as rushes and aquatic grasses. These islands afforded farmers growing space, and the rulers land to fabricate a stone universe. The Spanish, as is there practice, dismantled these temples and pyramids to construct their elaborate cathedrals nearby where photography continues to be prohibited.
