Huixquilucan Municipality is one of the municipalities in State of Mexico, Mexico. It lies adjacent to the west side of the Federal District (Distrito Federal) and is part of Greater Mexico City but independent of. The name "Huixquilucan" comes from Nahuatl meaning, "place full of edible thistles." ==Municipal seat== The municipal seat of government is in the small town of Huixquilucan de Degollado with a population 9,554 in 2010,〔(2010 census tables: INEGI )〕 although the largest community is actually (population 121,470) the adjoining city of Naucalpan de Juárez which extends into Huixquilucan. Besides Naucalpan, there are also three other localities that are larger than the municipal seat. Huixquilucan had 242,167 inhabitants at the time of the 2010 Census in Mexico. Jesuits founded a school of indigenous languages here in 1580 in the village which was then called San Antonio Huixquilucan, taking advantage of a parish left vacant by the death of its former priest. The Jesuits were then able to preach in the Otomi, Mazahua and Matlatzinca languages. However, the school was later moved to Tepotzotlán.〔 The town was officially declared in 1875, by a decree approved on April 15 of that year with the name "Villa de Degollado" and declared the seat of the municipality of Huixquilucan in the District of Lerma on the following day.〔 Notable people born in this town include: Dr. Fernando Quiroz Gutiérrez (1889), who wrote the classic book, “HUMAN ANATOMY”, Father Jesús García Gutiérrez (1875) who was the author of many religious works. 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「Huixquilucan de Degollado」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
