Quechereguas
Quechereguas is a Chilean village located in Molina, Talca Province, Maule Region.
It is bordered by the Lontué River. Quechereguas was described by Francisco Solano Asta-Buruaga y Cienfuegos in his book Diccionario Geográfico de la República de Chile in 1899 as being "notable for the battle which occurred on 8 April 1814 between royalists and patriots during the Independence War [of Chile]." The battle in question is known as the Battle of Quechereguas. A similar battle occurred on 15 March 1818.
Quechereguas comes from the Mapudungun words quechu and rehue, meaning together "five districts or portions of Indians [Mapuches]."
