Settled in eastern Yucatan, Valladolid was the scene of rebellions and fights between conquerors and conquered. The subjugation of the Maya of eastern Yucatan, the Cupule rebels, corresponded to a nephew of the conqueror also named Francisco de Montejo, who established his camp around a lagoon that the natives called Chouac-Há (“long water”), and that it seemed to the Spaniards the best place to settle. This site would be the base of operations to subdue the cupules and dominate their capital, Zacihual, which means “White Hawk” since it symbolizes the warlike qualities of the Zací community.

This place was an important political and religious center where the lords of the cupul lineage resided; breaking them was the most difficult task for the Spanish soldiers, however, on May 23, 1543, Captain Don Francisco de Montejo “El Sobrino” ended up founding the town he called Valladolid, as a tribute to the Castilian city of the same name.

On May 28, 1543, he had to change his place of settlement because the terrain was not good, the land was infertile, the climate was humid and unhealthy, and many of the settlers had fallen ill. They decided to move it to the ruins of the Mayan city of Zací, a word that means “white hawk”, the same that can be seen today on its shield. Valladolid acquired the category of “city” on December 13, 1823.

Two great events in the history of Mexico took place here: the Caste War in 1847 and the first spark of the Mexican Revolution in 1910.
