Counterfactuals and revisionism in historical explanation
This article addresses the role of counterfactuals in historical and ethnohistorical explanation. Drawing primarily on examples from the Conquest of Mexico, it argues (1) for a useful role for counterfactual analysis, not in writing fiction, but in assessing pivotal causation and proofing causal arguments; (2) for a clearer understanding of causation in historical records, especially of ethnohistorical subjects; and (3) for a way in which this pe…

Periodic Markets in Precolumbian Mexico
Considerations of markets in Precolumbian Mexico have failed to analyze the significance of periodicity for Precolumbian market systems. This essay examines periodicity and argues that the several types of recorded Precolumbian markets are qualitatively different; the 5-day market was basic, while 9-, 13-, and 20-day markets were ritual in nature, tied to specific and infrequent days, and played little or no part in market articulation

The Famine of One Rabbit: Ecological Causes and Social Consequences of a Pre-Columbian Calamity
The famine of 1454, the most devastating one recorded for pre-Columbian central Mexico, led to disease, massive migration, and widespread death, but is only vaguely presented in the records. This paper reanalyzes the famine sequence, points out its differing impact on various segments of the population, and examines the long-term consequences for Aztec society. Imperial expansion, which has been suggested as a response, is discounted in favor of …

Internal Conflict in the Creek War of 1813 - 1814
This article attempts to analyze the structural divisions within the Creek Confederacy during the Creek War of 1813/1814. Although Creek social units were divided into White (peace) and Red (war) factions, this did not play a determinative role in military alignment. Rather, individual age and town units were the determinative factors and not social structural divisions. The main thrust of this study is a consideration of the split in the Creek
