Tunnel may lead to Aztec ruler's undiscovered tomb, archaeologists say

Archaeologists have found a tunnel-like passageway that apparently leads to two sealed chambers in Mexico's Templo Mayor complex.
It is the latest chapter in the search for the as-yet-undiscovered tomb of an Aztec ruler.
The Aztecs are believed to have cremated the remains of their leaders during their 1325-1521 rule, but the final resting place of the remains has never been found.
Government archaeologist Leonardo Lopez Lujan says the 27ft- long tunnel was found leading into the centre of a circular platform where dead rulers were cremated.
The mouth of the tunnel was sealed by a three-ton slab of rock, with offerings underneath. At the end of the tunnel, archaeologists can see two sealed entrances.
Outside experts said the find would be significant.
