- Cempoala abstract "Cempoala or Zempoala (Nahuatl Cēmpoalātl 'Place of Twenty Waters') is an important Mesoamerican archaeological site located in the Úrsulo Galván Municipality, in the state of Veracruz. The word \"Cēmpoalli\" (from Nahuatl root \"Cēmpoal) means twenty and \"ā (tl)\", means water, hence \"twenty waters\" perhaps because the city had a lot of aqueducts which provided the vital fluid to the numerous gardens and surrounding farmland fields and irrigation channels. The place was inhabited mainly by Totonacs, Chinantecas and Zapotecs.Another version considers it is probable, the name referred to commercial activities, according to some sources, these activities were performed every 20 days in prehispanic times.
