About Cuquío
Cuquío is a town and municipality, in Jalisco in central-western Mexico. The municipality covers an area of 248 square miles (643 km2). It limits to the North with the municipality of Yahualica and the State of Zacatecas; to the South, Zapotlanejo and Acatic; to the East, Yahualica and Tepatitlán; and to the West, Ixtlahuacán del Río. Its name derives from the word Cuixui, which in the Náhuatl language means kite, and is interpreted as "place of kites", or in Purépecha language, "place of frogs or toads". The foundation of the town is awarded to the Purépechas (Tarascans) who repeatedly ventured through these valleys after the Saltpeter War (1480-1510). As a third version about the origins of the municipality name, it is well known that the tribe of coquias settled in La Cofradía, two kilometers from the current town, whose name is conjectured the denomination comes from. Cuquío also depended on the Tonalteca kingdom.
