Mesa de Cacahuatenco is a Mesoamerican pre-Columbian archeological site, located in the municipality of Ixhuatlán de Madero in northern Veracruz, Mexico, south of the Vinasca River. It is an important site, located some 44 kilometers (27.32 mi.) west of Castillo de Teayo another contemporary archaeological site in Veracruz. El Tajín archaeological site is located some 80 kilometers (49 mi.) southeast. It is one of the largest and better known cities of the mesoamerican classical era, it flourished from 600 to 1200 C.E. ==Toponymy== The word Ixhuatlán is derived from two Náhuatl words: Ixhuatl that means “papatla” and Tlan that means place. Hence, Ixhuatlán means “Place of papatlas”; papalta is a plant that frows in moist places and its leaves are used to wrap tamales.〔 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「Mesa de Cacahuatenco」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
