Clues in the international trailer

Hey guys, I just had a thought, if you will indulge me. The first password for projectprometheus.com was of an ancient site in Iraq - 'tell abu shahrain'. Well I looked at the international trailer again at its staring straight at me - Its at about 30 secs into it where you have Holloway talking about the ancient civilisations. Eridu cropped up just before that scene faded out. There were other ancient places mentioned - 'Mesopotamian, Aztec, Cave paintings from France'. The Mesopotamian city we've already figured out. So maybe if we can figure out the most prominent ancient city of the Aztec's, and whatever the name of that French cave is, those place-names might be new passwords for projectprometheus.com and might reveal new content. There seemed to be about 7 or 8 images that Holloway was presenting, each of a different civilisation. So that could be a possible 7 or 8 more passwords. It's just a thought and I may be wrong, but I think that the international trailer holds a few clues...

The most prominent city of the Aztec was [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tenochtitlan]TENOCHTITLAN[/url]... It was located just where Mexico city is today...

I just tried going from frame to frame to see if I could read it, but its way too blurry. And Holloways head gets in the way :P

correct! from national geogrphic Welcome to Skye, the Island and Lochalsh - [u]Eilean a' Cheò[/u]. Here the stark rise of the jagged[u] Cuillin[/u] ridge drops to the gentle white of a soft sand beach.

also on the bottom of the pics, there is a light aqua circle. this is a map...the red dot is where the artifact was found. go to trailer 2 0:42 and you can see majority of the maps I am talking about. One of them was near Mexico like an aztec location. pinpoint the center of the red dot and you have it figured out.

@TheSNARK: If you mean the ancient city of [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teotihuacan]TEOTIHUACAN[/url], that wasn't an ancient Aztec city, but a Toltec one...

Got that from the trailer. It's on the tablet before the Eridu one.

@TheSNARK: Well, for many years many archeologist thought the city of [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teotihuacan]TEOTIHUACAN[/url] was a Toltec only city, but apparently it was a multi-ethnic city with people from different mesoamerican cultures like the Maya, the Totonac, Zapotec, Mixtec, etc... so maybe the Aztec also lived in there too... And since it was a very important and ancient city (even older than TENOCHTITLAN) then It could be considered also an important Aztec one.

The cave painting in France: Lascaux. Home to some of the oldest cave paintings (if not the oldest anymore) on earth. Someone try it for me. I can't get the project prometheus page to show the password entry field. (WTH?)
