Putla Villa de Guerrero (which in Nahuatl is Poctlan) is located in Oaxaca, specifically in the Sierra Sur region.

The story dates back to the Mixtec tribes who lived in the ancient town of Putla, near San Juan Lagunas and were in charge of the Lordships of Tututepec, one of the four major kingdoms of the Mixteca region.

For years, and as a consequence of various diseases, they migrated from place to now Putla Cemetery (derived from the Mixtec word Ñuu Ñuma) which in Spanish means place of smoke and today is known as “Ñuu Kaa” (Place of metals).

Putla's name also originates from Puctitlán, which means "where there is a lot of smoke" and is composed of poctli: smoke and tla: suffix that denotes abundance.

“In some way, Cuban doctors expose the local (doctors) because the locals don’t want to leave – I can’t use the correct, scientific word – but to a town with a previous suburban adjective, later, whereby the way, Héctor He remembers very well (…) when he finished his medical degree here at UNAM, he went to a horrible town in Oaxaca, Putla, if I’m not mistaken, and then thanks to Héctor and his friendship with Diodoro (Carrasco, then governor of Oaxaca ) I think we were able to send her to another town, a little less horrible, but so she left with great enthusiasm, no, and a Cuban if he goes to Putla, happy with life “

Zuckermann, Héctor Aguilar Camín, and Javier Tello never questioned his offense, they only dedicated themselves to laughing at the pejorative comment.
