Tututepec

Tututepec (Mixtec: Yucu Dzaa) is a Mesoamerican archaeological site. It is located in the lower Río Verde valley on the coast of Oaxaca. The city was the capital of a tributary Mixtec empire during the Late Postclassic period (ca. 12th to early 16th centuries). At its largest extent the site covered some 21.85 km², and its political influence extended over an area of more than 25,000 km² of the neighbouring territory covering many towns and cultures.^[1]

Today, the site is occupied by the contemporary settlement of Villa de Tututepec de Melchor Ocampo, in the Mexican state of Oaxaca.
