Miopacoas

The Miopacoas were among the Indigenous communities of the Laguna region in northern Mexico. Accounts of the valley name them alongside the Irritilas, Meviras and other groups whose territories lay among the basins fed by the Nazas and Aguanaval rivers. The rivers spread into lakes and marshes amid a much drier surrounding landscape. These waters gave the region its name and distinguished the country of the Laguneros from the desert ranges beyond it.
