1. Events
January 601: The Totonac culture or Totonec culture was a culture that existed among the indigenous Mesoamerican Totonac people who lived mainly in Veracruz and northern Puebla. Originally, they formed a confederation of cities, but, in later times, it seems that they were organized in three dominions: North, South and Serran. Its economy was agricultural and commercial. They had large urban centers such as: El Tajín (300-1200), which represents the height of the Totonac culture, Papantla (900-1519) and Cempoala (900-1519).
Disestablishment
January 1001: Classic Veracruz culture (or Gulf Coast Classic culture) ceased to exist around 1000 CE.
