The foundations of this future metropolis were laid at once by sinking piles Into the shallows, for the low marshes were half bur led In water. Such were the begL nlngs of the Great Tenochltlan, capital of a mighty empire whose d gree of civilization astounded t!i conquering Spaniards led by Cortez Into Mexico. , During colonial times the nopal and the eagle appeared at various times as decorative motives In the coat of arms of the City of Mexico.
