Etymology
Kehach is the name by which the local populations identified themselves to others since the days of the Second Ytza Kingdom. It is derivated from the word Keh, meaning "Deer", and the suffix -ach which is generally used to denote abundance. When all Kehach towns and territories were gathered into a single Yajawil during the 19th century, this new territory was given a name relating to its people, but in Mutli: Kehkal, "Land of deers".
Geography
Kehkal consisted of a region of low hills with wide valleys that form swamplands during the rainy season, the region is also characterised by a number of small lakes, such as Lake Mokutun, Lake t'etek and Chann'ab. It lays at the border between the western coast (represented by the Yajawils of Chakan and Kanayin) and the K'ah Basin that occupy two-thirds of the Yajawil of Nohixil.
History
It is generally understood that the Kehach and the Ytze share a common ancestry. During the Paol'lunyu and Chaan Dynasties, the Kehach were located outside of the Mutul proper, being part instead of the Ytze Kingdom that laid on the Divine Kingdom's northern border. The lands of modern Kehkal were then part of the "Western Principality" of the Ytze First Kingdom, one of its four "sub-kingdom". The Western Principality represented a large sway of lands which, at the height of the Ytze expansion, went from their capital of K'ah to the east, to the shores of the Makrian Ocean to the west after the integration of what is today the modern Yajawil of Kanayin.
