HISTORY
 The Huasteca region is
located in northern
Veracruz, southern
Tamaulipas, and parts of the
states of San Luis Potosí and
Hidalgo. To a much lesser
extent it includes some areas
of the states of Puebla and
Querétaro.
Although it is convenient to
clarify that the maximum
advance of the Huasteca culture
constitutes it in a shrine near
Rancho la Burrita, east of
Matamoros Tamaulipas,
according to the story of Don
Joaquín Meade. Even the
Huastecs came to trade with the
nomadic peoples of the north,
including the inhabitants of the
Brownsville-Barrel Complex.
In pre-colonial times, the Huasteca
was populated by various groups:
Huastecos, Tepehuas, Otomies and
Totonacos, located in the south and
southwest. In the north and
northwest were the Nahuas
intertwined with guachichiles,
pames and various Chichimec
groups. The region was known by
the name of Xiuhcoac, which
means "turquoise snake".
