The name was given by the Aztecs on their finding of the city, long after the collapse of the original Teotihuacan culture.
The pyramid was built in several construction phases, each one substantially enlarging the structure from an original small temple. Excavations since 1999 have discovered sacrificial burials (both animal and human) associated with each building phase.
Note: Greenstone effigy originally found in the Pyramid of the Moon, Teotihuacan, restored for museum show.
