The Aztecs did settle in the Valley of Mexico around the year 1200, as evidenced by archaeological and historical records. The other statements are factually incorrect: the Hohokam built irrigation canals in the Southwest region, not burial mounds in the Mississippi River valley; the Mayan civilization reached its height around the year 900, not 1200; and the Hopewell built burial mounds and other earthworks in the Midwest region, not irrigation canals in the Southwest. Therefore, the best choice is B, which is the only statement that is factually correct.
