Gualaceo , nicknamed "El Jardin Del Azuay" (The Garden of Azuay), is a canton (territorial subdivision) in the south-central region of Ecuador. It belongs to Azuay Province, Ecuador. Its population is 42.000 inhabitants according to the official website (visitagualaceo.com ). The origin of its name is debatable. Some historians affirm that the name comes from the Chibcha word “gualaca” meaning macaw’s settlement, while others state that it was named after a mythological Cañari Indian named Gualaco or Gualaca, but both coincide in its meaning “macaw’s settlement”. ==Demographics== Ethnic groups as of the Ecuadorian census of 2010:〔(Ecuador en Cifras )〕 *Mestizo 88.2% *Indigenous 5.4% *White 4.0% *Afro-Ecuadorian 2.0% *Montubio 0.2% *Other 0.2% 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「Gualaceo Canton」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
