It was founded as Santa María de los Angeles de Río Blanco Mission in 1626 in the jurisdiction of Río Blanco, in the former [[New Kingdom of León]]. Its current name (which means "new valley" in Basque) honors [[Jose Silvestri Aramberri]], a general involved in the [[Mexican war of reform]]. It borders the municipalities of [[Galeana, Nuevo León|Galeana]] and [[Iturbide, Nuevo León|Iturbide]] to north, [[Doctor Arroyo, Nuevo León (municipality)|Doctor Arroyo]] to west and southwest, [[General Zaragoza, Nuevo León (municipality)|General Zaragoza]] to south and with state of [[Tamaulipas]] to east. ==History== The first Spanish settlement in the area took place in 1626, when friar Lorenzo Cantú, established a mission in which is now the municipal seat of Aramberri, in order to evangelize and pacificate the nomadic tribes of native Americans called Negritos or Bozalos and Janambres, which inhabited until its extinction in what is now Southern Nuevo León and Southeastern Tamaulipas. However, the mission, did not have success until the definitive foundation of Santa María de los Angeles Mission by Juan Ruíz Colmenero and several families of Spanish settlers in the year of 1648 in the region of Río Blanco valley, It was the southernmost administrative division of the [[New Kingdom of León]], which comprised also, the present-day municipalities of [[Doctor Arroyo]], [[Galeana, Nuevo León|Galeana]], [[General Zaragoza]], and [[Mier y Noriega]] in Nuevo León and the Mission of San Antonio de los Llanos, now [[Hidalgo, Tamaulipas]]. Santa María de los Angeles remained almost unpopulated during much of its history. It was created as municipality, separated from Río Blanco valley and renamed as Aramberri in 1877. A kindergarten in El Yerbaniz, Aramberri, home to thirty families, won MXN $20 million in the September 15, [[2020 in Mexico|2020]] raffle of the presidential airplane.<ref>{{cite news |last1=Garza |first1=Luciano Campos |title=Kínder rural de Aramberri, NL, gana 20 millones de la "rifa del avión" |url=https://www.proceso.com.mx/648495/kinder-rural-de-aramberri-nl-gana-20-millones-de-la-rifa-del-avion?fbclid=IwAR254VxClRtAL9vpCagMqHecI2a0EyPXlU03fxFbVJX2tAu-MLS3yoUMYEc |accessdate=Sep 16, 2020 |work=Proceso Portal de Noticias |date=16 September 2020 |language=es-MX}}</ref> ==Economy== The economy of Aramberri is mostly based in agriculture, the production and export of vegetables and fruits. Although, the southernmost part of Nuevo León has a lower per capita income compared to other regions of the state of Nuevo León, Aramberri has a per capita income higher than its adjacent municipalities in the southern part of the state. In 2008, with an investment of 150 million of [[Mexican peso|pesos]], was opened a techno-horticultural park in the community of [[Sandia, Aramberri]], it is one of the biggest agro-industrial parks of the state of Nuevo León, the project was supported by the government of Nuevo León, several entrepreneurs from Monterrey and southern Nuevo León, and important educative institutions such as the [[Universidad Autónoma de Nuevo León]] and [[Monterrey Institute of Technology]],<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.uanl.mx/acerca/campus/ciencias_agropecuarias/invernaderos.html |title=Archived copy |accessdate=2009-04-14 |url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20090525121251/http://www.uanl.mx/acerca/campus/ciencias_agropecuarias/invernaderos.html |archivedate=2009-05-25 }}</ref> the park, comprises as for 2009, more than 80 greenhouses within a range of 2,570 m2, it was recently announced the creation of 25 greenhouses for late 2009 and early months of 2010.

The specimen is actually a very large pliosaur, possibly reaching 15&nbsp;m (50&nbsp;ft) in length. The media published exaggerated reports claiming it was 25&nbsp;m (80&nbsp;ft) long, and weighed up to 150,000&nbsp;kg, which would have made it the largest predator of all time. This error was dramatically perpetuated in [[BBC]]'s [[documentary]] series ''[[Walking with Dinosaurs]]'', which also prematurely classified it as a [[Liopleurodon ferox]].<ref>http://news.bbc.co.uk/hi/spanish/science/newsid_2615000/2615987.stm</ref> On January 7, 2003, the fossil was transferred and reconstructed at the Natural History Museum of Karlsruhe in Germany, and was kept in exhibition until 2003, when it was transferred to the [[Museo del Desierto]] in [[Saltillo]], [[Coahuila]]. The fossil is on exhibition at the [[Museo de historia Mexicana]] in [[Monterrey]]. ==External links== *https://web.archive.org/web/20090406200756/http://www.aramberri.gob.mx/ Municipal government site of Aramberri *[https://web.archive.org/web/20090212031204/http://www.elsurdenl.com/ El Sur de Nuevo León] ==References== {{reflist}} {{Nuevo León}} {{Coord|24|06|N|99|49|W|display=title|region:MX_type:city_source:GNS-enwiki}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Aramberri, Nuevo Leon}} [[Category:Municipalities of Nuevo León]] [[Category:Populated places established in 1626]] [[Category:1620s establishments in Mexico]] [[Category:1626 establishments in New Spain]]'
