The Yajawil of Kehkal is a landlocked province of the Mutul located art the heart of the Xuman Peninsula. It's the third largest province of the geographic region, and the second least populated. It's surrounded by the Yajawil of Mekuzb'e to the north, Nohixil to the east, Lakam Tun to the south, Yokok'ab to the south-west, Chakan to the west, and Kanayin to the north-west. It's capital and largest settlement is Tiak.
Kehk'ab location and remoteness isolate it from the main axis of communication of the Divine Kingdom, making it one of the poorer Yajawil nationwide.
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: Kehk'ab, "Land of deers".
