Documentos de Toluca en la obra de Zorita

Year: 1980
Type: article
Abstract: This study analyzes the documentary sources used by Alonso de Zorita in the creation of his work on New Spain, emphasizing the importance of land and tribute disputes in the Matlalcingo Valley. It publishes a 1547 document related to the visit of the indigenous judge Pablo González, whose information was crucial to correct errors in previous works and better understand the post-conquest social and political dynamics. The research contributes to a critical understanding of primary sources underpinning historiography on territorial organization and tensions between indigenous peoples and Spaniards during 16th-century Mexico
