El Conde is an archeological site located at Ozumba Street, El Conde, three block north the Mayo 1 Ave., in the municipality of Naucalpan, Mexico State. The site was formally declared a prehispanic historical monument on December 28, 2001 The Valley of Mexico, of which Naucalpan is part of, was inhabited by humans for over 20,000 years.〔 Naucalpan's history begins with a group from the Tlatilco culture〔Nahuatl name that means "hidden on the ground ". The name was assigned by Nahuatlaca peoples, being that when the Nahuatlacas arrived at the Valley of Mexico, the Tlatilco culture had already disappeared. It is believed that the city was dominated (or strongly influenced) by the Olmecs (the first great Mesoamerican Culture).〕 It settled the banks of the “Río Hondo” between 1700 and 600 BCE,〔Dates from Diehl (2004), Bradley and Joralemon (1993). Were calculated by Radiocarbon dating. According to Pool (2007: 7), the Tlatilco culture developed between 1450 and 900 BCE.〕 in the area of the current Naucalpan municipality. Tlatilco archaeological evidence reveal the social development of that culture, prior to the Teotihuacan, Toltec, Chichimeca, and certainly the Aztec.〔 In the Mesoamerican Preclassical period (1300 to 1400 BCE), an Olmec group arrived and had a significant influence on the Tlatilca domain. Later, the Tlatilca were also heavily influenced by the Teotihuacan civilization. Between 1000 and 1200 CE, the Chichimeca conquered the Tlatilca and deposed their monarchy. The pyramid of El Conde was built during this time, located in what is now the El Conde neighborhood. Subsequently, the area was ruled by Tlacopan 〔Tlacopan or Tacuba, means "Plant ornament on flat land" in Nahuatl.〕 and ethnically came to be dominated by the Otomies.〔Ethnic groups related to the Mazahua, Matlatzinca, Pame, Jonaz. The Otomi are an indigenous people of central Mexico. Linguistically related to the Otomi language, an Otopamean language family, their ancestors settled the Mexican plateau several millennia before the Christian era〕 As of 1428 CE, the area was under Tepanec from Azcapotzalco domain, which was later conquered by the Triple Alliance, who named them Naucalpan.〔〔 ==Cultures influencing El Conde== Naucalpan is a Nahuatl name; some authors interpret its meaning as "the place of the four quarters" or "in the four quarters", but according to the etymological roots means "in four houses". Phonetic components are: Nau, grammatical contraction of nahui, means "four"; "cal derived calli, which means "House" and not "quarter" and pan, it should be interpreted, in this case, as "on" or "place": "in four houses" or “place of four houses".〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「El Conde」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
