Bufa is a word that originated from Aragonese, meaning pig bladder, which was used to describe the unique shape of the hill.
The Chichimecan tribes that inhabited the Zacatecan area were the Caxcanes, Guachichiles, Guamares Irritilas, Huicholes, Tecuexes, Teules, Tepehuanes, Coras, y Zacatecas.
The Bufa is a tourist attraction that marks the victory of the Battle of Zacatecas, a significant moment in the history of the state.
[5] When the Spanish, who were searching for precious metals, arrived at what is now Zacatecas, they entered through a mountainous path that led to a valley.
In the year 1588, Bufa Hill had gained so much importance that it was included in the city's arms, with the support of Felipe II.
