Description

To know about its territories within the New Global, Spain commissioned a survey of Spanish officers in Mexico between 1578 and 1584, asking for native maps in addition to descriptions of native resources, historical past, and geography. In The Mapping of New Spain, Barbara Mundy illuminates each the Amerindian (Aztec, Mixtec, and Zapotec) and the Spanish traditions represented in these maps and lines the reshaping of indigene Global perspectives within the wake of colonization.
