Museo de las Culturas Lacustres del Valle de Toluca, Dra. Yoko Sugiura Yamamoto
With pieces ranging from ceramics, archaeological materials, and mammoth remains, this space, which preserves the Estado de México great ancestral history, is a must-see.
This space preserves the history of the people who lived on the shores of the ancient Lake Texcoco and other bodies of water in the Toluca Valley. Its construction was supported by the UAEMéx, INAH, UNAM, UAM, and other institutions. It is located within the Atenquense Cultural Center in San Mateo Atenco.
Its importance lies in preserving information about the wetland area of the Toluca Valley, as well as providing analysis of the evolution of this ecosystem.
The most important wetlands are the Ciénega de Chignahuapan, the Ciénega de Chimaliapan, and Chiconahuapan.
The museum's name pays tribute to lake life and to archaeologist Yoko Sugiura Yamamoto, who has dedicated years of scientific research.
