Siyaja

El lingüista k'iche' Sam Colop (2008: 203n360) arguye que Siyaja es "la antigua 'Santa Catarina Ixtaguacán.'"

Anthropologist Allen J. Christenson (2007: 282n804) agrees with Colop, quoted in Spanish above, and suggests that a scribal error may be to blame for "a transcription error for Aj Sija,'" which would make the name of the town "They of the Flowering Tree Water." He notes, "This is the present-day community of Santa Catarina Ixtahuacán."
