Tlaxomulco

Tlaxomulco, later Tlajomulco, was a lordship south of Tonalá. Its Nahuatl name refers to a corner or enclosed place. In 1530 Nuño de Guzmán passed through the district during the conquest of Tonalá, taking indigenous auxiliaries for his further campaigns. A century later the corregimiento included small settlements in the valley between Tlajomulco and Guadalajara, as well as communities to the south.
