Crossword-Solution: HOLON 5 letters, 2 clues 🏆 scrabble score: 8

Four katuns had passed in which they journeyed when they arrived here with Holon Chantepeuh and his followers.

The following is the entry in the _Diccionario de Motul_: "PETEN; isla, _item_ provincia, region, comarca--_uay tu petenil Yucatan_, aqui en la provincia de Yucatan." The name of the first leader, Holon Chan Tepeuh, does not recur in the Annals.

Its signification is: _holon_, a generic name for large bees and flies; _chan_, sufficient, powerful, still in use in Yucatan as a surname; _tepeuh_, ruler, from _tepeual_, to rule.

This last word is marked in the _Diccionario de Motul_ as a "vocablo antiquo." It is of Aztec origin, as in the Nahuatl language _tepeuani_ means "conqueror." The name we are considering should probably be rendered "Holon Chan, the ruler." The province ruled by the Chan family at the time of the conquest was on the eastern coast, south of that of the Cupuls.
