  • Spanish Use of Plants and Animals in Early Colonial New Mexico

    H B Trigg, Ana C Opishinski et al.ARTICLEKIVA2022Cited by: 1References: 7

    During the seventeenth century, Spanish colonists began settling in New Mexico. As an agrarian society, the successful establishment of the colony rested on the colonists’ ability to create relationships with plants and animals in the colony’s novel environmental conditions. Using zooarchaeological and paleoethnobotanical evidence from the capital of Santa Fe and several seventeenth-century ranches, this paper explores the connections colonists h…

  • "Questioning "Conventional Wisdom

    David H Snow, David SnowARTICLEJournal of Anthropological Research2021References: 12

    From the early period of ethnological research among the Pueblos of the Rio Grande Valley in northern New Mexico, it has been customary to believe that the imposition of Catholicism reconfigured Pueblo social organization to conform to Spanish colonial, particularly Catholic, practice through formal church marriage.

    David H Snow, David SnowARTICLEKIVA2016Cited by: 2References: 11

    Scarce records documenting the use of peyote (Lophophora williamsii) in Spanish Colonial New Mexico prior to the 1680 Pueblo Revolt provide no indication of when or by whom it was introduced, or how frequently it might have been used by colonists and Native peoples. Used ritually throughout most of Mexico's Central Plateau and adjacent Sierra Madre, as well, among Aztec and Tarascan peoples at contact, its use by prehispanic Southwestern pueblo p…
