As Club América chases a historic fourth straight title Las Águilas legend questions Jardine's merit Henry Martín could return just in time for their quarterfinal showdown against Pachuca Former Morelos governor, former Mexican soccer star and current federal deputy Cuauhtémoc Blanco is facing a possible removal of immunity privileges as authorities are investigating an alleged rape case involving Blanco and his half-sister the Morelos State Prosecutor's Office formally submitted a request to the Chamber of Deputies to remove the immunity of Blanco a current deputy for the National Regeneration Movement Party (Morena) The petition led by Uriel Carmona Gándara aims to allow a criminal investigation against Blanco for the alleged crime of sexual abuse that took place in 2023 Blanco Fernández filed a complaint last October but it wasn't until late January that her attorney Rodrigo Dorantes started to talk to the press about what happened. According to El País Dorantes claims that Blanco tried to rape his half-sister in December of 2023 when she was living with him at the governor's residence in Morelos Blanco forcibly entered her bedroom and physically assaulted her with sexual intent "I heard a loud noise on my bedroom's door as if someone was trying to enter I got up and unlocked the door and saw Cuauhtémoc standing outside and told him 'What is going on he walked into my room violently," Blanco Fernández said in her testimony He grabbed me by the shoulders and tried to kiss me After that he immediately tried to grab my breasts and attempted to take my clothes off," she added Dorantes added that while the victim was living with Blanco "she was witness of certain conducts by Blanco" when hanging out with friends Dorantes claims parties thrown by Blanco included "excessive use of alcohol escorts and relationships with dangerous people." Blanco could lose the legal protection granted by his position if the Chamber of Deputies approves the immunity removal request allowing prosecutors to proceed with the investigation and immunity removal is a procedure designed to prevent impunity among public officials holding federal positions The final say will rest with the Chamber of Deputies who will assess whether sufficient evidence exists to strip him of his privileges The official leading the charge in Blanco's case is Uriel Carmona Gándara, a former prosecutor in the state of Morelos and a known political enemy of Blanco. But just a few hours after announcing the investigation, the Morelos Congress removed Gándara from his position "We will fight the decision as we consider it unconstitutional and illegal as it did not comply with established procedures for my dismissal They did not give me the chance to defend myself," Gándara added The Colonia Cuauhtémoc retains a strong local character while simultaneously harboring the delights of a typically gentrified neighborhood: there are cafes aplenty rug salesmen and produce sold out of the backs of trucks In addition to a large population of Mexicans German and Russian spoken here on any given day The neighborhood draws professionals and families with young children The area that now forms the Colonia Cuauhtémoc was once part of the Hacienda de la Teja owned by Augustinian friars between 1577 and 1629 Permission to build an official neighborhood wasn’t obtained until 1874 and in 1907 Cuauhtémoc was formally recognized by the city adding to the dynamic range of facades you see today Let’s start with the basics: Cuauhtémoc is both the name of the neighborhood and the borough it’s in which is why chilangos call it Colonia Cuauhtémoc — to distinguish it from the alcaldía Cuauhtémoc It’s shaped like a triangle and bordered by Circuito Interior Paseo de la Reforma and Calle James Sullivan The neighborhood is categorized by an eclectic mix of architecture that ranges from modern skyscrapers to avant-garde row houses amid a heavy dose of Japanese establishments within the approximate 35 square kilometers that make up Colonia Cuauhtémoc there are at least eight Japanese restaurants Many of these establishments are owned by the Edo Kobayashi group whose collection of sushi restaurants and music bars have garnered Colonia Cuauhtémoc the name “Little Tokyo.” Wandering the streets, each of which are named after rivers — think Río Hudson, Río Panuco and Río Nilo — you’re less likely to encounter first-time Mexico City tourists. The few that manage to cross to the east side of Reforma are usually in search of Tokyo Music Bar or they’re lost — or looking for the U.S. embassy which takes up a good chunk of the neighborhood Cuauhtémoc is great if you love: A down-to-earth community where everyone has a dog and you can buy an overpriced flat white on one end of the block and 20-peso street tacos on the other Monumento a la Madre: A towering monument dedicated to mothers where you’re liable to catch a community Zumba class or military march Museo Casa de Carranza: The 19th-century house where Mexican Revolution-era leader and president Venustiano Carranza lived in his final six months of life is now a well-preserved museum showcasing artifacts related to Carranza and the Revolution Mariane Ibrahim Gallery: A bold and colorful contemporary art gallery that showcases emerging and established artists a delicious lunch spot on the ground floor Librería Góngora: A charming independent bookstore known for its extensive collection of literature and art books literary events and readings and its resident cat Vainilla Lola: Need a plant pot?

CMCI renames itself the College of Communication Visit our CMDI resources page for more on the college name and FAQs about the opportunities this change will afford to students and alumni By Joe ArneyPhotos by Kimberly Coffin (CritMedia A childhood trek to visit Aztec temples in Mexico was the first time Cuauhtémoc Campos thought about a future in architecture Long before the first-year landscape architecture student set foot on the University of Colorado Boulder campus Campos helped his father design a porch and a patio area for their home he’s refining those skills and interests to bring his visions to life from reusing physical space on campus to a design of his name that borrowed from those Aztec ruins that inspired him “Most of the projects we do are hands-on and challenge us to experiment with our creativity,” Campos said we do a lot of presentations to prepare us for when we need to talk about our work publicly.”  He said he hopes to further strengthen his communication skills once the environmental design program becomes fully integrated with the College of Media, Communication and Information Campos and his peers will formally become part of CMCI at which point the college will rebrand itself as the College of Communication “I was a little shocked when I first heard we were becoming part of CMCI,” he said “But I feel like the resources we’ll have from being part of the college will add more to what we’re able to learn while hopefully introducing CMCI students to what makes ENVD special.”  An important charge for Lori Bergen was structuring the integration in a way that added value for ENVD students faculty and staff without disrupting the cultures of either entity environmental design will be able to retain its identity while benefiting from enhanced and expanded services and networks we had three concepts that guided our vision—think those principles are just as relevant to our identity the intensely hands-on nature of an ENVD education reinforces our mission as a college that brings different to help us bring interdisciplinary insights to increasingly complex problems.”  works with a student on a project to refresh the Boulder Dushanbe Teahouse we’re working on a virtual reality/augmented reality model for retrofitting neighborhoods in Denver to comply with green building codes and emission reduction bills and we’ll use his facility so that students can work on their models but also to explore and get hands-on with the technology,” Kamal said but then found out Patrick had everything we needed in his lab And he’s just amazing—he works around our schedule That kind of collaboration is something Stacey Schulte hopes faculty will build on as the players begin to work together.“No discipline exists in a vacuum,” said Schulte “I am excited to see how environmental design will collaborate with communication- and media-related disciplines “As our students continue to create impactful work they learn how to tell the story of their projects—the problems their designs are intending to solve and how those solutions create positive community impact—in ways that resonate with stakeholders.” CMCI's emphasis on communication and presentation skills has Ella Seevers excited about environmental design becoming part of the college Kamal said she’s still learning about the players in CMCI who would be good fits for collaboration “but there is a lot of potential where technology meets storytelling.“Communication has always been a challenge for architecture and planning students—how to communicate in lay terms complex designs and be able to tell a story through them—so their clients and the public can appreciate their vision—will be incredibly helpful in their careers.” got some professional communication experience last year when she worked on a project for the city of Boulder and was challenged to make better use of sites along its creek path she went on a site tour and presented her vision to city officials and landscape architects working on a pop-up installation for the summer Hers is one of three student projects that will influence the final design “It was an amazing experience to share our ideas and see that they were actually valued by professional designers who have been doing this for decades,” said Seevers a teaching assistant in ENVD’s design studios and a mentor to first-year students I’ve had this opportunity to work with the city already because that usually doesn’t happen with a first-year project and tell other people what you’re thinking and how it’s going to be implemented then you won’t be a very effective designer,” she said complex designs and be able to tell a story through them—so their clients and the public can appreciate their vision—will be incredibly helpful in their careers."Azza KamalAssociate Teaching ProfessorEnvironmental Design written and visual—but through their environmental designs these talented individuals are bringing stories to life in 3D,” said Marchesi (Jour’85) “This will be something very defining for the college because it’s taking storytelling to new dimensions—literally.”   That’s something faculty in the college are excited to explore in depth “My initial reaction to the news was one of intense joy and excitement over what’s possible,” said Bryan Semaan chair of CMCI’s information science department “Design intersects so many different spaces Environmental design researchers are looking at many of the same problems and topics as people across CMCI and within our disciplinary communities but they’re operating on a scale of how humans will experience and be shaped by the natural and built environments in ways that are important to a sustainable future.”  That could be anything from a database that governs an algorithmic system to the impact of a data center on the environment and people who live nearby Elena Sabinson an assistant professor of environmental design said an important part of her program’s culture is recognizing and creating things that match the needs of their users It’s something she works on very closely as director of the Neuro D Lab which studies how design can trigger innovations that support wellbeing and accessibility to those who are neurodivergent “I would say my colleagues in ENVD are interested in bridging those mismatches between the environment and the needs of a user,” she said “And I think CMCI is already doing a lot of that in its own way whether it’s documentary or information science or any of those spaces.”  Alumni like Christopher Bell (PhDMediaSt’09) are watching to see how the college prepares students for the kinds of challenges he sees at work a consultant and president of CreativityPartners LLC said he’s excited to see student and alumni collaborations going forward such as social media managers who can raise money and awareness for life-changing products coming out of environmental design “People who believe they are ‘just’ technically focused are the people who need the most instruction in communication,” said Bell also a member of CMCI’s advisory board and an instructor who teaches courses in screenwriting and cultural studies “Those are the people who need us the most because they are making arguments and sending messages “Architecture and city planning are arguments how we see ourselves in relation to other people and what is important to spend resources on who needs to learn about argument more than environmental designers?” environmental design becomes another dimension of the story that we live in.” Stephanie Marchesi

services CostaLine The bus system in and around Mexico City is extensive You can go almost anywhere from any of the four central terminals: TAPO in Venustiano Carranza; Central del Norte in Gustavo A in Álvaro Obregón; and the Central de Autobuses del Sur And by anywhere, I mean if you wanted to take the bus to Cancun, you could! Though I don’t recommend it. In 2023, Mexico News Daily published a two-part series on places you can go by bus in CDMX that is still very relevant today we’re talking about one of the most sprawling Which leads us to the unfortunate problem with these four terminals: if you live in the city’s central zone it’s not always a cakewalk to arrive at the station can easily add an extra hour or more to my journey regardless of if I choose to take the Metro or an Uber Which is why the new station is so exciting Cuauhtémoc is hyper-central and situated just a stone’s throw from the Angel of Independence This delightful enclave is one of the most geographically-convenient zones in the city Now that there are more transportation options departing two blocks from the Angel of Independence on Río Tiber those of us residing nearby have more incentive to hit the pavement and explore somewhere new the next time you have a few days free to frolic here are some destinations you can reach via the new bus station at Calle Río Tiber 74 with the exception of the one that runs to AIFA made almost entirely of pink cantera stone including the city’s magnificent cathedral Be sure to try the sopa tarasca and sweet tamales You may already have guessed it: San Miguel de Allende’s historic center is nothing less than a Unesco World Heritage site.

Authorities have confirmed 15 measles cases in a Mennonite community in western Chihuahua A 16th case has been confirmed in the city of Namiquipa at least 90% of a community must be vaccinated to prevent outbreaks the World Health Organization (WHO) recommends Mexican officials are worried because there isn’t an accurate count of how many adults in Mexico’s Mennonite communities are immunized against measles children enrolled in Mexican schools usually get the vaccine The Undersecretary of Prevention and Health Care called on parents to complete their children’s vaccination schedules and urged adults under 39 years of age to get the measles vaccine if they have not received it “It’s essential to recognize that the vaccine is a preventative measure,” Ruiz noted adding that the vaccine is currently available at all health centers across the various institutions Measles is a highly contagious disease characterized by high fever respiratory complications that can be fatal An infected person can transmit the virus to between 16 and 18 people According to the Associated Press outbreak began in a Mennonite community in West Texas with low vaccination rates “Many of the children are homeschooled or attend smaller private schools, and many are unvaccinated,” Bill Moss executive director of the International Vaccine Access Center Chihuahua health authorities believe residents who have family in Texas or who traveled there West Texas and New Mexico communities have reported over 250 cases Two unvaccinated individuals have died from measles-related causes including an unvaccinated school-aged child 29 people in Texas remained hospitalized due to measles As of March 10, the World Health Organization (WHO) reported 32,488 suspected cases and 16,144 cumulative cases worldwide mainly in Yemen (7,548) India (6,661) Thailand (6,224) and Ethiopia (4,596) That’s effectively what the new mayor of the borough that includes Mexico City’s historic center said Thursday when she announced that rótulos — colorful hand-painted signs — would return to Cuauhtémoc In 2022, Mayor Alessandra Rojo de la Vega’s predecessor, Sandra Cuevas, ordered the removal of rótulos on street stalls as part of a program ostensibly aimed at cleaning up and organizing Cuauhtémoc which also includes neighborhoods such as Condesa More than two years after Cuevas’ polarizing program began Rojo offered an apology for the removal of rótulos and murals that added color to the streets and markets of Mexico City’s busiest borough “It’s time to make an institutional apology,” the mayor said Thursday outside the historic center’s San Juan-Arcos de Belén market Rojo described Cuevas’ order for rótulos to be removed as “an attempted murder against culture.” The former mayor’s decision was taken “without studies without social conscience” and deprived Cuauhtémoc-based rotulistas “of the right to work,” she said “… There was a violation of cultural rights … and civil society resisted We don’t want more abuses of power,” Rojo said The mayor — elected in June on a PAN-PRI-PRD ticket — said that her government is seeking partnerships with the private sector to hire rotulistas so that vendors don’t have to cover the cost of making their stalls colorful again Llegó el gran día, en mi gobierno: 𝑳𝒐𝒔 𝒄𝒐𝒍𝒐𝒓𝒆𝒔 𝒓𝒆𝒈𝒓𝒆𝒔𝒂𝒏 𝒂 𝒍𝒂 𝑪𝒖𝒂𝒖𝒉𝒕𝒆́𝒎𝒐𝒄 después de años de prohibición, los rótulos volverán a las calles de nuestra alcaldía.

traits the footballer would display throughout his career and life populous and often violent neighbourhood of Tepito ironically in the Cuauhtémoc borough of Mexico City After rising swiftly through the youth ranks at Club América the most successful side in the history of Mexican football Blanco made his professional football debut aged 19 As with most young players finding their way in the game opportunities were limited in his first two years at the Estadio Azteca Blanco made almost a hundred appearances in the league his rise in the first team coincided with a fallow period in the club’s illustrious history as they underwent a drought of 13 years without a national title between 1989 and 2002 Blanco was loaned out to Necaxa for the 1997/98 season The team from Aguascalientes had a poor first half to the season in the winter championship but rallied in the second half of the campaign finishing runners-up in the summer championship as Blanco bagged 13 league goals in 28 games Blanco returned to the Azteca and took his goal-scoring form with him scoring 51 league goals in the following two seasons Blanco made the transatlantic trip to Spain joining Real Valladolid of LaLiga on loan in the summer of 2000 and the situation wasn’t helped when he broke a leg in a World Cup qualifier against Trinidad & Tobago studs-up tackle by Ansil Elcock left the Mexican with damaged ligaments in his right knee and Blanco later claimed this injury hampered a mooted move to Real Madrid Blanco only managed a handful of appearances during his first season in Spain The second season was a little more successful on a personal level forwards are judged on their goal output and Blanco’s return wasn’t good enough Perhaps the highlight of his time in Spain came in the Santiago Bernabéu against Real Madrid in September 2001 Madrid thrashed Espanyol 5-1 the week before in the same venue but Valladolid proved to be a sterner test With time ebbing away and Valladolid trailing 2-1 Blanco stepped up to take a free-kick from more than 20 yards out The set-piece was ferociously driven past a poorly constructed wall and a young Iker Casillas to give the visitors an unlikely point and Blanco his moment in the sun Blanco returned to his spiritual home of the Azteca in time for the 2002/03 season and his next spell at the club would prove more fruitful than the first He’d spend the next five seasons with América and finally got his hands on a championship medal América would win their 10th title after beating Tecos 7-4 in the final over two legs the trophy cabinet was augmented with success in the CONCACAF Champions Cup as fellow Mexican side Toluca 2-1 were overcome on aggregate claiming three consecutive domestic MVP awards becoming the Designated Player for LA Galaxy Fire managed to reach the playoff semi-finals in all three of Blanco’s seasons stateside and he was nominated for several individual awards during his time there Blanco returned to Mexico in 2009 and would spend the remaining few years of his career as a relative journeyman turning out for five more teams and dropping down the divisions on several occasions won the second tier Clausura championship before losing in the promotion final to Tijuana Blanco lifted the Copa MX after converting the first spot-kick in a successful penalty shoot-out the timeless Blanco won his second Copa MX medal after coming off the bench for Puebla in a final they won 4-2 one of Blanco’s biggest honours was representing Mexico’s national team to represent my country is a source of pride,” he once said “And when they play the national anthem I want to cry.” During the course of his international career including South Africa 2010 when he was 37-years-old Blanco debuted for El Tri in 1996 in the run-up to the successful Gold Cup campaign of that year He started all four of Mexico’s games at the 1998 World Cup in France before they crashed out to Germany in the round of 16 It was during this tournament that the Cuauhtemiña was unveiled to the world in the match versus South Korea Blanco would trap the ball between his feet and jump in the air to evade tackles emerging into space and leaving two bemused defenders in his wake finishing above Italy who qualified in second place and started all three games of the group stage Order  |  Mexico Controversially Blanco was omitted from the squad for the 2006 World Cup after falling out with manager Ricardo La Volpe. The chain-smoking Argentine was no shrinking violet either, therefore it’s no surprise that the two clashed. La Volpe was described by many in the Mexico camp as a good coach, but one with a difficult personality. Once again, Mexico were eliminated in their cursed second round, losing out to La Volpe’s compatriots, Argentina, thanks to a superb and memorable volley from Maxi Rodríguez. Hindsight is a wonderful thing and one can only wonder whether Blanco could have made the difference in that tight game, but a coach has to trust his players. If the relationship wasn’t there between the two, it’s understandable that Blanco was left at home. In September 2008, Blanco appeared against Canada for what would be his centenary cap for El Tri, only to retire immediately afterwards. However, just like his club career, he would reverse his decision to quit and made his comeback the following May in the build-up to the 2010 World Cup. In March 2016, Blanco officially ended his professional playing career, returning to the club of his heart for one final swansong. Aged 43 and wearing the number 100 on the back of his jersey to celebrate América’s centenary, Blanco played 36 minutes of a routine 4-1 win at home to Morelia. Proving there was still life left in his legs, he even managed to rattle the crossbar as well as performing his trademark move, the Cuauhtemiña, one last time. Two months before Blanco said goodbye to the career which had consumed his adult life, he began a new one. On New Year’s Day 2016, Blanco assumed the office of Mayor of Cuernavaca, under the banner of the Social Democratic Party (PSD). Being the mayor in the largest city of Morelos state, ravaged by drug-related violence, is not without its problems and Blanco’s ride has been less than smooth. In December 2016, less than a year into his mandate, Blanco began a hunger strike to protest against allegations made against him. His attendance at City Hall meetings was questioned, as well as his ability to suitably carry out the role as mayor. He was criticised for not being a local resident, a common problem in personality politics, and of accepting illegal donations. The hunger strike ended after just two days when the accusations against him were dismissed. It’s safe to say that Cuauhtémoc Blanco is a legend in the eyes of América fans, and those of the national team. His character and talent endeared him to lovers of the beautiful game both at home and abroad. His brave choice to enter the political world in a country as seemingly ungovernable as Mexico, ravaged as it is by drug-related violence, will not come as a surprise to those that know him or have followed his career. His name links him indelibly to Mexico’s indigenous past as well as the modern-day European nature of the country. Blanco’s life story is far from flawless and reads like a story from one of Mexico’s famed telenovelas: a poor boy who became a national sporting superstar before later turning to politics. Both on and off the pitch he has always done things his own way and that clearly isn’t going to change now that he’s swapped the green grass for City Hall.

Mexico’s love affair with football could help a politician with a dubious background become a very powerful man Blanco grew up in Tepito, a neighborhood in Mexico City with a reputation for poverty and roughness It may be best known for the number of legendary boxers who have come from there “Everyone knows that if you come from the fierce barrio of Tepito to struggle for life,” the historian and commentator Enrique Krauze told the Guardian Read more“He is the most popular soccer player we have ever had,” says the journalist Carlos Puig who has covered Blanco’s political career for Milenio TV “He is not always a man of sympathy,” the novelist and soccer journalist Juan Villoro says “He is the kind of guy that you can find in the backstreets of dangerous neighborhoods in Mexico Therefore he has this kind of special charisma Cuauhtemoc Blanco in action against South Korea at the 1998 World Cup Photograph: Mark Leech/Offside/Getty ImagesShortly after Blanco retired from soccer approached him to run for mayor of Cuernavaca Cuernavaca is known as the City of Eternal Spring Many Mexico City residents have weekend homes there Blanco’s new career is no surprise to Villoro “It wasn’t a very strange surprise that he decided to run for mayor of Cuernavaca,” Villoro says “He was very famous and our politics nowadays is in a very confused and terrible situation People are fed up with politicians and everyone is looking for outsiders It can be a former medalist in the Olympic games Some of the public questioned Blanco’s experience. Doubts were cast about his motivations. It would later be alleged that he had been paid 7m pesos ($353,000) by the Social Democratic Party to run for the office and reportedly no evidence has been found that any money was exchanged.) Not many seemed to take Blanco seriously as a politician “Cuernavaca is a paradise on earth,” says Krauze it’s hell.” To the west of the city is the state of Guerrero which has one of the highest percentages of drug-related violence in the country It’s where much of the country’s heroin supply is produced The most direct route from Guerrero to Mexico City is through Morelos Krauze calls Morelos “the door from Guerrero to Mexico City.” Not surprisingly Morelos has become synonymous with violence as well In a recent survey of Morelos voters in the newspaper El Financiero people said security was their most pressing concern Perhaps it’s no failure on Blanco’s part that as mayor of Cuernavaca he didn’t reduce the violence “In the terrible earthquake we had on 19 September last year Cuernavaca was very badly hit,” Krauze says “And I didn’t see much of Cuauhtémoc Blanco’s activity.” His mayorship was “distinctly disappointing,” Wood says “We thought that that was going to be the last stop in his political career,” Villoro says committed a terrible mistake and that was to go after Cuauhtémoc Blanco So Blanco decided to do what he has done many times on the soccer field the animus between the two began when Ramirez wanted the state to take control of the police throughout Morelos Blanco wanted to keep the city’s police department localized Allegations of corruption had exploded under his tenure Residents had protested against him in the streets “We can explain this current political carnival not because of the political virtues of Cuauhtémoc Blanco because of the political failures of all the Mexican political class and especially the current governor of Morelos In March 2017, after a falling out with his previous political party, Blanco joined the Social Encounter Party (known as PES in Mexico), a conservative, evangelical Christian political party that’s against same-sex marriage and abortion It’s still not wholly clear if Blanco shares the party’s views “He only talks about helping people.” Around this time the party and Blanco began to float the idea of Blanco running for governor of Morelos In a stroke of political good fortune for Blanco, three months after he joined PES, Andrés Manuel López Obrador (often referred to by his nickname “Amlo”), who is expected to win Mexico’s presidential election this Sunday in a landslide formed a coalition of seemingly disparate political factions that included Obrador’s own left-leaning Morena party and Blanco’s PES “Amlo has accepted support of groups that don’t belong to his ideology,” Villoro says “But we can say that nowadays in Mexico there are no ideologies and we can even say that there are no real political parties Cuauhtémoc Blanco belongs to this very extravagant smorgasbord I admit it: I got completely captivated by this story about Cuauhtémoc’s final resting place I later wrote about it in Wikipedia using municipality publications after an online scolding by a Mexican Wikipedian did I look at the story more critically and found that its authenticity is unclear You have probably seen the name Cuauhtémoc on many streets in Mexico His name is better remembered here than that of Montezuma/Moctezuma although both saw the demise of the Aztecs Moctezuma is blamed for conquistador Hernán Cortés’ triumph while Cuauhtémoc is seen as the tragic symbol of the Mesoamerican world’s loss According to documents promoted by authorities in the state of Guerrero and the municipality of Ixcateopan the son of Prince Ahuizotl and Princess Cuayutital He began his career in the court of Tenochtitlán (Mexico City) in 1516 eventually becoming a warrior tasked with the defense of the empire against the Spanish The young king was defeated in August 1521 by Cortés and executed a few years later a historian named Eulalia Guzmán and the painter Diego Rivera announced the discovery of Cuauhtémoc’s remains underneath the parish church of Ixcateopan The church lay next to an archaeological site and The historian stated that she had found documentation indicating the Cuauhtémoc was buried there and so set up an excavation which reported finding a pit carefully covered over in the local rock one with a cross and the inscription 1,525 1,529 Coatemo (supposedly a variation on Cuauhtémoc’s name) along with human bone fragments and various grave goods Rivera was brought in to arrange the bone fragments in human form as well as to publicize the find As the country’s most famous painter of indigenous life before the Conquest his word would have great weight in the popular imagination The find has been controversial ever since generally pitting established academia against local authorities and indigenous activists Those who believe the remains to be genuinely those of Cuauhtémoc point to several 16th-century writings and a coat of arms on the church with indigenous symbols as well as local oral history and traditions The story they promote is that Cuauhtémoc was killed in Tabasco on February 28 Loyalists later carried him for over a week to Ixcateopan The body was later moved to where the parish church was built and the coat of arms remains as a testament Guzmán quickly convinced local and state authorities of the authenticity of the find They renamed the town Ixcateopan de Cuauhtémoc in 1950 The National Institute of Anthropology and History (INAH) formed a commission in 1949 that determined the remains were not those of Cuauhtémoc but the experts not only confirmed that the remains were not of the emperor but that they are of eight different people who died at different time periods They also made accusations that the original discovery had been manipulated by people with political and economic agendas INAH refused to close the case definitively citing the intense public interest in the matter academic publications generally reassert the 1976 findings and have even accused Guzmán of incompetence not only about Ixcateopan being Cuauhtemoc’s final resting place but also on it being his birthplace the story depends on Ixcateopan being important enough to produce someone who could ascend to the throne there is no evidence that the area was an important region in the Aztec Empire There are also serious questions about the accuracy of documents especially those which are copies of earlier records the parish church was most likely built in the mid-16th century; the 1539 date on the coat-of-arms is considered a forgery None of this has deterred many state and local authorities as well as people devoted to a particular idea of pre-Conquest Mexico What we may be seeing in Ixcateopan is the rise of a mythology not unlike the development of relics in medieval Europe if federal authorities had any inkling that the bones were really Cuauhtémoc’s The most ardent defenders of the bones’ authenticity are local and state officials and cultural activists Ixcateopan identifies itself as the “cradle of indigenousness,” with the main plaza named after Eulalia Guzmán Pilgrimages to the shrine are important culturally and economically especially on the anniversaries of Cuauhtémoc’s birth and death (February 23 and 28 respectively) when representatives from indigenous groups from all over North America come to pay respects Tourism to Ixcateopan increased each year before the pandemic and there is no reason to believe this will not continue after it is over it may not matter if the bones are scientifically proven to be those of Cuauhtémoc or not; it is hard not to feel like you are in
