Aztlán is the mythical ancestral home of the Nahua peoples, one of the main cultural groups in Mesoamerica and, by extension, is the mythical homeland of the Uto-Aztecan peoples. Aztec is the Nahuatl word for "people from Aztlan".

While Aztlán has many trappings of myth, similar to Tamoanchan, Chicomoztoc, Tollan and Cibola, archaeologists have nonetheless attempted to identify the geographic place of origin for the Mexica.

At the equinox of 2009 began the search for Aztlán in Ojuelos, Jalisco. The Nahui Ollin Association has found traces of a civilization that might be related to Aztlán.
