Maniani

Maniani, later called Lamaní, lies in the mountainous country of central Honduras near the valley of Comayagua. Its hills and streams belong to a region long inhabited by Lenca communities. The name survives in the history of the settlement amid the valleys south of Comayagua, where forested ridges separate neighbouring villages and waterways descend toward the larger river basin.

The later city of La Paz lies here.
