Los Naranjos

Cortés Department, Honduras

Los Naranjos is the name for an archaeological region in western Honduras which belongs to the Lenca culture. It lies on the north border of Lake Yojoa. It is significant to the region because of its implications for determining where the Mayan frontier existed, as well as which ancient peoples were in contact and what relations between "tribes" may have been like. Whether or not the Olmec influenced the people of the Lake Yojoa region is disputed.
