Panzós
Panzós is a municipality in the Guatemalan department of Alta Verapaz. On 29 May 1978, the village of Panzós was the site of a massacre in which between 30 and 106 local inhabitants (figures vary) were killed by the army. The name Panzós means "place of the green waters", in reference to the nearby Polochic River and swamps full of alligators and birds.
