Turquoise was very important to the Mesoamerican civilizations. Masks with turquoise inlay have been unearthed in Teotihuacan, Guerrero, and Malinatepec that date back to the middle classic period (300 to 550 CE). One of the most famous pieces from the Aztec civilization was Montezuma’s statue of the double headed serpent god Quetzalcoatl which was inlaid with turquoise and other gemstones from Mesoamerica.
