“…Forced resettlement under congregation was introduced in the 1540s, and the Dominicans began planning the relocation of Teposcolula to a new Spanish-style town in the valley below. In 1545 or 1546 another major epidemic struck the Mixteca Alta region, and in 1552, the town was formally moved to the valley by direct order of the viceroy (Gerhard 1977;Zavala 1982). The new town, later christened San Pedro y San Pablo Teposcolula, was elevated to the status of a regional capital (alcaldia mayor), and records from the 1560s and 1570s document numerous Spanish residents (Calderon Galvan 1988;Romero Frizzi 1990).…”

A mid-sixteenth-century cemetery was investigated at the colonial Mixtec site of Teposcolula Yucundaa and is shown to be related to the cocoliztli pandemic of 1544–1550. This is the earliest colonial epidemic cemetery to be identified in Mexico. Through archaeogenetic and oxygen stable isotope analysis it is demonstrated that the interred individuals were local Mixtecs, and mortuary analysis sheds light on both Christian and traditional religious practices at the site. Mitochondrial haplogroup frequencies support long-term genetic continuity in the region, and carbon stable isotopes of bone collagen and enamel carbonates suggest no decrease in maize consumption during the early colonial period, despite historical evidence for a changing agricultural economy and increased wheat production at the site. The Teposcolula cemetery provides a rich and complex perspective on early colonial life in the Mixteca Alta and reaffirms the importance of archaeological and bioarchaeological evidence in investigating complex social and biological processes of the past.

El articulo trata de los cambios territoriales del espacio regional de Araró- Zinapécuaro (Michoacán, México) a lo largo del siglo XVI. A partir de los años de 1540, la cristianización de este importante centro ceremonial tarasco y la fundación de un convento franciscano favoreció el traslado de las competencias administrativas entre Araró, que fungía originalmente cómo cabecera, y Zinapécuaro. Así, este estudio de caso demuestra la progresiva adaptación de la organización territorial prehispánica a las necesidades de la Nueva España. A partir del análisis de la organización territorial, de la documentación histórica y de datos arqueológicos, se reflexiona sobre el impacto que tuvo el cambio sobre los pueblos sujetos, el territorio y el uso de los recursos naturales.

“…Additionally, he suggests that present day settlements in Mexico are in essence the same towns that were formed in 1550-64. 54 However, it has also been argued that the pueblos de indios of the eighteenth-century central Mexican highlands should be seen as the continuation of pre-Hispanic indigenous landed estates. he pueblos were highly stratiied entities and were ruled by a small group of elite families (caciques).…”
