History
The name Teyahualco comes from Toyahualco, which underwent transformations over time (they were Nahuatl names, which were distorted by the Spanish conquest and evangelization); means "in the bushes of Tule or place of bushes of Tule"; previously it was made up of four neighborhoods and places: Tecompa, Colostitla, Jajalpa and Tlamimilolpa.
Through the study and analysis of bibliographies related to the indigenous past of the first settlers of the Valley of Mexico and codices, it is now known that in this lake region there were settlements of cultures such as the Chichimeca, Tlatelolca and Otomí, which were nomadic tribes. and hunters. pilgrims.
In the annals of Cuautitlán, Chimapopolca codex, it is mentioned that in Tecpatl year one (804 AD) the Chichimecas from Cuatitlán established the dominion of this valley, due to its abundant water, flora, fauna and fishing. It is said that during these times the population was of about 12 families. During the colonial period, some original places received a Spanish name, such as:
