GUZMAN URIOSTEGUI, Jesús. Apuntes para una historia de la insurgencia en la Tierra Caliente de Guerrero, 1810-1821. Estud. hist. mod. contemp. Mex [online]. 2009, n.37, pp.5-35. ISSN 0185-2620.

During Mexico's struggle for independence, from 1810 to 1821, one of the geographical zones that provided most support for the insurgents was the south, whose territory currently forms part of the state of Guerrero. First with José María Morelos y Pavón and then with Vicente Guerrero, the complicated geography of the south and its no less unhealthy climate jeopardized all the viceregal authorities' attempts to re-establish peace there. Although the royalists had some success, they were never able to overcome the locals' desire for freedom, especially those in Tierra Caliente. Although they acted in a somewhat isolated fashion from 1811 to 1813, since Morelos ignored them, preferring those on the coast, they subsequently provided his greatest support. They did the same with Guerrero from 1816 to 1821, forcing Agustín de Iturbide to negotiate peace.
