The path segment "oxaaca" should be "oaxaca".

From the W3C Manual of Style [MANUAL]:
First person pronouns ("I," "we") which are hard to translate should
not be used in the text of examples. See the email message "Personal
pronouns in specifications" [PRONOUNS]. Avoid "my" and "me" in examples
(e.g., use "userResource" and not "myResource").
