It wasn't unusual for Christian churches to be built over pagan sites in Europe, such was the case with Mithraic temples. This pyramid is known as Tlachihualtepetl, and also as The Great Pyramid of Tepanapa it was built by and inhabited by the Tolmecs, the culture previous to the Aztecs and the site is over 2400 years old.
