Danlí

Danlí lies among the mountains and valleys of southeastern Honduras, near the valley of Jamastrán. Records from 1678 and 1679 describe an estate called Danlí inherited by Pedro and Alonso Ortiz de Fúnez. By 1690–1691 the small settlement had a church, a handful of thatched houses and cattle lands. Its position placed it between the high ground to the north and the neighbouring valleys.
