The Monumento a la Fundación de México-Tenochtitlán is a public monument installed near the government offices in the historic center of Mexico City, Mexico. The monument, designed by Carlos Marquina, was dedicated in 1970. Part of the sculpture depicts an eagle atop a cactus, eating a snake, representative to the imagery on the flag of Mexico and further to the founding of Tenochtitlan, the capital of the Aztec Empire.
