Hope the link works. Interesting info on the indigenous history of the Patzcuaro area.

¡Gracias! Yes, the history of the Purépecha is quite interesting indeed. I highly recommend a movie called "Eréndira Ikikunari" (Eréndira La Indomable) about a Purépecha girl during the time of the Conquista. It's entirely spoken in Purépecha with Spanish subtitles, so you may learn some new words if you listen carefully. You can watch it at the link below.
