History
Jesús Flores Magón was born in Teotitlán in 1871 and Enrique Flores Magón in 1877, who together with their brother Ricardo Flores Magón- who was born in nearby San Antonio Eloxochitlán- stood out in the opposition to the government of Porfirio Díaz and are considered precursors of the Mexican Revolution. In their honor, in 1977 the Congress of Oaxaca officially changed the name of the town from Teotitlán del Camino to Teotitlán de Flores Magón.[citation needed]
