Etymology
The name Cutzamala comes from a Nahuatl word cutzamallot meaning "rainbow"; hence, "Place of Rainbows.” It was known to Purepecha speakers as "Apatzingani,” which has the same meaning. An alternative theory suggests it is derived from the Nahuatl word cutzamatl, meaning "weasel."
History
19th Century
