Jacinto Pat
Statue erected by the state of Quintana Roo. The sculptor was Antonio Castellanos.
Chief of the Mayan rebellion known as the Caste War, he resided in Tihosuco and accepted the Treaty of Tzucacab with the government authorities, for which he was disowned by Cecilio Chí and later assassinated by other Maya leaders due to differences in the strategy of the rebellion.
Commanded by Francisco de Montejo in 1544, the territory of the current municipality of Felipe Carrillo Puerto was conquered, leaving its inhabitants subject to the system of encomiendas, where they were forced to pay tribute, serve the conquistadors and suffer abuse and exploitation. This situation lasted during the Colonial period and through Independence without any benefit for the Maya, until on July 30, 1847 they rebelled in Tepich, commanded by Cecilio Chí and later by Jacinto Pat and other Mayan leaders, initiating the War of Castes that for more than 80 years kept the Maya of the Yucatan Peninsula in a state of war.
