Description for Pueblo Indians and Spanish Colonial Authority in Eighteenth-Century New Mexico

Pueblo peoples negotiated Spanish authority to maintain their own distinct ethnic identity. Num Pages: 240 pages, illustrations, maps. BIC Classification: 1KBBWX; HBJK; HBTQ; JFSL9. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 229 x 152 x 25. Weight in Grams: 476.
Pueblo people reacted to Spanish colonialism in many different ways. While some resisted change and struggled to keep to their long-standing traditions, others reworked old practices or even adopted Spanish ones.

In doing so, author Tracy L. Brown counters the prevailing argument that Pueblo individuals and communities’ only response to Spanish colonialism was to compartmentalise—and thus freeze in time and space—their traditions behind a cultural “iron curtain.”
