Al borde de la conquista: el contacto maya-español en la colonización de Belice
Science (New York, N.Y.)
|December 8, 1989
Resumen
La conquista española de Centroamérica afectó a las comunidades mayas de manera diferente a las de México central. La investigación arqueológica y etnohistórica revela las primeras interacciones maya-español en el Yucatán, a pesar de los limitados registros históricos.
Área de la Ciencia:
- La etnohistoria y la etnohistoria.
- Arqueología Arqueología.
- Estudios Coloniales Los Estudios Coloniales
Sus antecedentes:
- La conquista española de América Central, que comenzó en 1521, tenía como objetivo el control de las personas y los recursos.
- Los mayas de la península de Yucatán experimentaron un gobierno colonial menos directo en comparación con el centro de México.
- Los densos bosques proporcionaron refugio a las poblaciones mayas que escapaban de la opresión colonial.
Objetivo del estudio:
- Comprender las primeras relaciones maya-español en los siglos XVI y XVII.
- Para arrojar luz sobre la interacción entre los gobernantes mayas y los españoles.
- Para explorar la dinámica de la frontera en la América Central colonial.
Principales métodos:
- Investigaciones arqueológicas en las tierras bajas mayas.
- Análisis etnohistórico de la información documental limitada.
- Estudio comparativo del impacto colonial en diferentes regiones.
Principales resultados:
- Nuevos conocimientos sobre las interacciones maya-español han surgido de investigaciones recientes.
- La relativa autonomía de los mayas de Yucatán influyó en su relación con los españoles.
- La comprensión de la dinámica de las comunidades fronterizas tempranas ha avanzado.
Conclusiones:
- Las evidencias arqueológicas y etnohistóricas son cruciales para comprender las relaciones maya-español.
- Las condiciones únicas de la Península de Yucatán dieron forma a distintos encuentros coloniales.
- Investigaciones adicionales continúan iluminando las complejidades de las primeras interacciones coloniales.

02:22The Colonization of Land
Changes in the environment of the early Earth drove the evolution of organisms. As prokaryotic organisms in the oceans began to photosynthesize, they produced oxygen. Eventually, oxygen saturated the oceans and entered the air, resulting in an increase in atmospheric oxygen concentration, known as the oxygen revolution approximately 2.3 billion years ago. Therefore, organisms that could use oxygen for cellular respiration had an advantage. More than 1.5 years ago, eukaryotic cells and...
00:53Migration
Migration is long-range, seasonal movement from one region or habitat to another. This common strategy, carried out by many different organisms around the world, is an adaptive response that typically corresponds to changes in an organism’s environment, like resource availability or climate. Migrations can involve huge groups of thousands of animals as well as single individuals traveling alone and can range from thousands of kilometers to just a few hundred meters.
01:17Region of Convergence
The z-transform is a powerful mathematical tool used in the analysis of discrete-time signals and systems. It is a crucial tool in the analysis of discrete-time systems, but its convergence is limited to specific values of the complex variable z. This range of values, known as the Region of Convergence (ROC), is fundamental in determining the behavior and stability of a system or signal. The ROC defines the region in the complex plane where the z-transform converges, which can take various...
01:26Areas Within Irregular Boundaries
Calculating areas within irregular boundaries, such as along rivers or curved roads, is crucial in various fields, including surveying, engineering, and environmental management. Surveyors often begin by creating a traverse, a connected series of straight lines approximating the area's boundary. The coordinates of each traverse point are essential for calculating the enclosed area. The double meridian distance formula is a widely used technique for this purpose. This method utilizes the...
02:31Habitat Fragmentation
Habitat fragmentation describes the division of a more extensive, continuous habitat into smaller, discontinuous areas. Human activities such as land conversion, as well as slower geological processes leading to changes in the physical environment, are the two leading causes of habitat fragmentation. The fragmentation process typically follows the same steps: perforation, dissection, fragmentation, shrinkage, and attrition.
01:20Spanning Openings in Brick Walls
In brick wall construction, supporting structures are crucial for openings like windows and doors to maintain the integrity and support the weight of the wall above. These supports include lintels, corbels, and arches, each serving specific structural purposes.
Lintels are primary supports used to span openings and can be crafted from materials such as reinforced concrete, steel-reinforced brick masonry, or simple steel angles. These are straightforward to install and are typically concealed...
