This site was one of the main pre-Hispanic population centers in this region during the late preclassical, of groups deriving from the Mezcala culture, in the large settlements of the Río Balsas.

Its development occurred from 800 BCE to 300 CE, with relevance to archaeology of the state of Guerrero, due to its antiquity and functional architectural style, primarily for the storage and drainage systems, as well as the construction of stone columns.

From this begins the architectural development of the site, with limestone blocks and cylinders carved for its construction in columns and walls, all very well defined in its manufacturing.

The site has a complex architectural distribution, with stone slab streets, large platforms, open spaces, and others that functioned as rooms, warehouses, or possibly, as workshops where specialized activities were performed.

[2] The site has several function places, these include two ceremonial enclosures and three residential housing complexes, it is believed that they were occupied by high-ranking people and craftsmen.

Features include the street continuation on axes distributed around well-defined platforms; pink limestone rooms were built with sunken patios and their respective drainage system, water tanks, and small storage areas.

In several ports of the site are some constructions with shape and dimensions similar to storage areas, possibly for grain, food, or manufactured products.
