Acambay, Mexico State (Paperback)

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Acambay is a town and municipio (municipality) located in north of the State of Mexico. The township of Acambay is the municipal seat of the municipio of the same name. The origins of Acambay date back to the settlement of the area by the Otomis who founded a ceremonial center called Huamango, which was occupied from 850 to 1350. It was the most important cultural center before the rise of the Tula civilization. The area is now known as the San Miguel plateau. While the cause of the center's abandonment is not absolutely known, some legends indicate that it was destroyed by an earthquake, forcing the population to move.
