Eastern Huetar Kingdom
Dereck Camacho:
The Eastern Huetar Kingdom, also known as Lordship of [[el Guarco]], is one of the two great kingdoms in which the domain of the [[Huetar people|Huetar ethnic group]] was divided in the [[Central Valley of Costa Rica]] and at the time of the conquest the king was [[Chorroque]], son of the feared chieftain El Guarco.<ref></ref> Although smaller than the fellow hueart nation, the [[Western Huetar Kingdom]] ruled by [[King Garabito|Garabito]] as part of its [[Garabito Empire|larger empire]]. The eastern huetar territory extended from the banks of the Virilla River to the slopes of the [[Chirripó]] in the [[Tierradentro]]. The area of the modern [[Paraiso Canton]] was governed by the vassal chiefs Abituri and Turichiqui, in addition there were aboriginal settlements in [[Ujarrás]] and [[Orosí|Orosi]] that were visited by the Spaniard Ignacio Cota in 1561.<ref></ref>
In the illegal distribution carried out by Perafán de Ribera in 1569, two geographical areas were described in which the eastern orchard tribes were grouped; Big Turriarva and Small Turriarva. The first included the current towns of Aquiares, Colorado, Santa Cruz, with their main chiefs Tabaco and Hurrea; and the second constituted the present towns of Margot, Azul, Jesús María, Alto Varal, Cimarrones and Lajas.<ref></ref>
