The oldest settlement found in Latin America would be the Puerto Hormiga archaeological site, located in Colombia and dated circa 4,000 BC.
The oldest, continuously inhabited settlement would be Cholula, in central Mexico. Founded in 200 BC, it has been an important religious center for more than 2200 years. Nowadays, it is becoming an important commercial farming hub and tourist spot.
