Solferino is a very old Mayan community located in the municipality of Lázaro Cárdenas Quintana Roo, its previous name in Mayan was laab “kah which means ‘old town’, with the arrival of the Spaniards changed its name to Solferino due to the ink stick, which is a kind of wood that grows in the lagoons and savannas of the area and was very valuable at that time because they extracted the ink from the wood by boiling it (Solferino red color) and was used to dye textiles, makeup etc.. , This was transported in ships to Europe.
