What is Conquest of the Sierra : Spaniards and Indians in Colonial Oaxaca about?
Chance (anthropology, Arizona State U.) depicts the colonial experiences in the Sierra Zapoteca, a remote mountain region in southern Mexico. Employing unpublished and archival sources, he traces the evolution of a unique regional colonial society. His principal focus is on the Indian communities their population, settlement patterns, economy, religious practices, and socio-political organization and how they developed within a highly monopolistic colonial economy.
