10806 Mexico           Discovered 1993 Mar. 23 by E. W. Elst at Caussols.
Mexico is a country in the southern part of North America. Much of it is high plateau cradled by three great mountain ranges, one of which contains active volcanoes. Several great civilizations, among them Olmec, Toltec, Mayan and Aztec, flourished there from about 100 A.D. to the time of the Spanish conquest.
