Teotihuacan was a city-state (e.g. it was its own capital) built some 800 years before Aztecs arrived to the Mexico City valley in 1325. By the time the Aztecs found the city, it was already abandoned. In fact, the actual name of the city was lost in the sands of time, so the Aztecs named it as Teotihuacan ("City of the Gods").

Incorrectly attributed to the Aztecs, the ancient city and ruins of Teotihuacan lie some 48 kilometers (30 miles) northeast of Mexico City, capital of the country of Mexico. It was founded almost 800 years before the Aztecs arrived to the Texcoco valley in 1325 AD.

It was a city built by the Teotihuacan people on 100 BC. It is usually mistaken to be of Aztec origin, but it is not the case: the Aztecs flourished as an independent civilization in 1325 AD, almost 1400 years after Teotihuacan was built. In fact, nobody knows for sure what is the actual name of the city; when the Aztecs discovered it, they called it as Teotihuacan (City of the gods) due to the gargantuan architecture of the place. It however, had been abandoned for centuries.

"It was a city built by the Aztecs".
It wasn't. It was founded by the Teotihuacan Civilization around 100 BC, but by the time it was discovered by the Aztecs (circa 1325 AD), it was already abandoned. Aztecs named it as Teotihuacan (i.e. "City of the gods") due to the impressive, gargantuan architectural style.
