Caaguazú is a district and city in the department of the same name in Paraguay. The area was originally called ´Picadas de Ka´aguasu´ which means ´the clearings of the big forest.´ These lands were acquired by a man named Cristobal Villalba from Villarrica through a royal land grant in 1706 and in 1762 they were inherited by his son named Sebastian. These lands bordered the hills of Ybytyruzu to the south, the pathways to the yerba mate plantations of Curuguaty to the north, the hills of San Joaquin to the west and Parana River shores to the east.
