Zaachila (the Zapotec name; Nahuatl: Teotzapotlan; Mixtec: Ñuhu Tocuisi) was a powerful Mesoamerican city in what is now Oaxaca, Mexico, from the city of Oaxaca. The city is named after Zaachila Yoo, the Zapotec ruler, in the late 14th and early 15th century. Zaachila was the home of Donaji, the last Zapotec princess. Zaachila is now a historical location. In the middle is a sizable unexplored pyramid mound where two tombs were found in 1962. These tombs are thought to belong to important Mixtec persons.
