The Patron Deity of this place is Lady 9 Reed, who plays an active role in early Ñuu Dzaui history, particularly in the episode known as the 'War against the Stone Men'. She had various sanctuaries throughout the region, e.g. in Tonalá, where she was visited by the warrior king Lord 8 Deer 'Jaguar Claw' in AD 1097. This article presents arguments for the identification of 'Ring of Stones' as ancient Huajuapan (in the Western part of the State of Oaxaca, Mexico) and examines some of the related archaeological remains.
