Cuauhtitlan

Cuauhtitlan was an indigenous town north of the basin of Mexico. Its history was preserved in the annals that bear its name, recording the rulers and events of central Mexico before and during the Spanish conquest. After the fall of Tenochtitlan, Cuauhtitlan and its dependent communities were assigned in encomienda to Alonso de Ávila. Franciscan friars established a presence there early in the colonial period.

The later city of Cuautitlán Izcalli lies here.
