Ocotlán De Morelos Page 1 of 17
Oaxaca - Ocotlán de Morelos Page 1 of 17 Enciclopedia de los Municipios de México ESTADO DE OAXACA OCOTLÁN DE MORELOS NOMENCLATURA Denominación Ocotlán de Morelos. Toponimia Ocotlán significa: “Junto a, o entre los Ocotes”; se forma con las voces Ocotl, “ocote o pino” y Tlan, “lugar“. Lleva el nombre de Morelos en honor a don José Ma. Morelos y Pavón. Para los antiguos pobladores Ocotlán tenía un solo significado que daban las siguientes voces “el lugar de ocotes” y “junto o entre los ocotes”. El significado proviene de las voces ocotl: ocote (pino), árbol de la tea y tlan: lugar de junta “de” o “entre de”. En un inicio tuvo el nombre de “Santo Domingo Ocotlán” debido a la llegada de los frailes dominicos a la región (esto fue en la víspera de la celebración del santo en el año de 1555), motivo por el cual se le nombró santo patrón a Santo Domingo de Guzmán. Posteriormente durante la época de la Independencia, las fuerzas armadas del caudillo, Generalísimo don José María Morelos y Pavón en su viaje hacia Acapulco, acamparon en el jardín de la población de Ocotlán durante 3 días. En memoria de este caudillo, los habitantes nombraron a la población “Ocotlán de Morelos”. Existen otras versiones sobre su significado en lengua zapoteca en la cual se conocía al poblado como “Lachiroo”, que significa: “Valle Grande”; los zapotecas de Tlacolula le llamaban Guelache, que quiere decir: “Plaza del Valle”. HISTORIA Reseña Histórica El origen de los primeros pobladores de Ocotlán no está aún definido, se cree que un núcleo familiar establecido en las faldas del cerro o loma llamada “Tortolita” ubicada a 2 kilómetros de distancia del actual Ocotlán.

Linguistics Thesis
Unstressed Vowel Deletion in Colonial Valley Zapotec Michael Selvaggio, Swarthmore College1 May 2021 Abstract: Many modern Central Zapotec languages have deleted unstressed vowels. I investigate the historical steps that led to this change by analyzing texts written in Colonial Valley Zapotec, a historical form of Zapotec. I examine the comparative frequency of vowels appearing in certain words throughout the texts. I find that vowels tended to delete in the forms *xiteni and *xi- and did not appear to be deleting elsewhere consistently. Furthermore, I find that epenthetic vowels were occasionally being inserted word-finally in Spanish names and loanwords. From this analysis, combined with data from Isthmus Zapotec and Chichicapam Zapotec, I argue that the first step of vowel deletion in Zapotec was deletion of unstressed vowels after alveolar fricatives and potentially nasals, and that this process of deletion had begun by 1578. This analysis builds on the claims of Uchihara (2016) and helps illustrate the phonological development of the Central Zapotec languages. 1. Introduction 2 2.
