Toponymy edit

The name (Kancabchén) is a word from the Mayan language meaning the well of the red ground.[3] Ucí means seven,[4] thus the name of the place is the seventh well of the red ground.

How to get there edit

Take highway 176 northeast out of Mérida toward Mutul approximately 45 km (28 mi). The Kancabchén hacienda is located on the road to Motul toward to Telchac Pueblo, near a ranch called Kobchen, the only way to get there is to walk or take a bicycle the 4 km (2.5 mi) to the farm.[5]

History edit

Early records indicate that the owner of the property was Benita Palma Barroso de Campos,[6] who inherited 8 haciendas from her husband Roque Jacinto Campos Marrufo.[7]

In modern history, some sources show the owner of the hacienda as Aru, others show it as Domingo Ku. Until the 1950s, the farm was dedicated to the production and cultivation of henequen. It closed and the equipment was unused until the 1980s when part of it was purchased by an entrepreneur from Mérida, who planted trees to utilize the factory equipment for processing limes. The first harvests began in the 1990s and production was steady until a 2002 hurricane destroyed that season's crop. In 2003 Coca-Cola purchased the estate and began replanting lime trees. The first harvests began in 2010.[5]

Demographics edit

All of the henequen plantations ceased to exist as autonomous communities with the agrarian land reform implemented by President Lazaro Cardenas in 1937. His decree turned the haciendas into collective ejidos, leaving only 150 hectares (370 acres) to the former landowners for use as private property.[8] Figures before 1937 indicate populations living on the farm. After 1937, figures indicate those living in the community, as the remaining Hacienda Kancabchén Ucí houses only the owner's immediate family.

According to the 2005 census conducted by the INEGI, the population of the city was 96 inhabitants, of whom 55 were men and 41 were women.[9]
