==History==

The land where the city of [[Maracay]] is located today was granted to Sebastián Díaz Alfaro in the 16th century. After his death the land passed to his son Mateo. At that time these lands were known as Valle de Tucupío and Tepatopo and were used as cattle grazing lands. Towards Tucupío, [[Tapatapa River|Tapatapa]], [[Güey River|Guey]] and El Rincón, [[Sugarcane|sugar cane]] and [[Cocoa bean|cocoa]] were planted.
