Book The Missions of Northern Sonora

Download or read book The Missions of Northern Sonora written by Buford L. Pickens and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2022-04-05 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Spanish missions founded by Padre Eusebio Kino in Sonora, Mexico, during the 1690s and early 1700s are historical as well as architectural marvels. Once self-supporting villages with central churches, the missions stand today as monuments to perseverance in the face of a hostile New World. These "Kino Missions" were surveyed in 1935 by the National Park Service to prepare for the restoration of the mission at Tumacacori, Arizona, then a National Historic Monument. That report, which was never published, provided insights into the missions' history and architecture that remain of lasting relevance. Perhaps more important, it documented these structures in photographs and drawings—the latter including floor plans and sketches of architectural detail—that today are of historic as well as aesthetic interest. This volume reproduces that 1935 report in its entirety, focusing on sixteen missions and including two maps, 52 drawings, and 76 photographs. With a new introduction and appendixes that place the original study in context, The Missions of Northern Sonora is an invaluable reference for scholars and mission visitors alike.

Book Twilight of the Mission Frontier

Download or read book Twilight of the Mission Frontier written by Jose De la Torre Curiel and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2013-01-09 with total page 355 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twilight of the Mission Frontier examines the long process of mission decline in Sonora, Mexico after the Jesuit expulsion in 1767. By reassessing the mission crisis paradigm—which speaks of a growing internal crisis leading to the secularization of the missions in the early nineteenth century—new light is shed on how demographic, cultural, economic, and institutional variables modified life in the Franciscan missions in Sonora. During the late eighteenth century, forms of interaction between Sonoran indigenous groups and Spanish settlers grew in complexity and intensity, due in part to the implementation of reform-minded Bourbon policies which envisioned a more secular, productive, and modern society. At the same time, new forms of what this book identifies as pluriethnic mobility also emerged. Franciscan missionaries and mission residents deployed diverse strategies to cope with these changes and results varied from region to region, depending on such factors as the missionaries' backgrounds, Indian responses to mission life, local economic arrangements, and cultural exchanges between Indians and Spaniards.

Book The San Xavier Missions

Download or read book The San Xavier Missions written by Kathleen Gilmore and published by . This book was released on 1969 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The problem of this paper is concerned with 1) the general principles of making field identification of documented historic sites and 2) the application of these principles to the location of a particular site, the San Xavier complex of missions, established in Texas in 1746. The first section of the report is concerned with the general principles used in constructing a preliminary model. The next section deals with basic data-historical, ethnographical, and archeological, used in setting up the San Xavier model. The third section defines the San Xavier model. The fourth is a summary of archeological field investigations and findings. The final sections compare the field research and archeological findings to the preliminary model and present conclusions about the field location of the missions, and the effectiveness of the method.

Book The   patas

    Book Details:
  • Author : David Yetman
  • Publisher : University of Arizona Press
  • Release : 2010-11-15
  • ISBN : 0816528977
  • Pages : 369 pages

Download or read book The patas written by David Yetman and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2010-11-15 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1600 they were the largest, most technologically advanced indigenous group in northwest Mexico, but today, though their descendants presumably live on in Sonora, almost no one claims descent from the Ópatas. The Ópatas seem to have “disappeared” as an ethnic group, their languages forgotten except for the names of the towns, plants, and geography of the Opatería, where they lived. Why did the Ópatas disappear from the historical record while their neighbors survived? David Yetman, a leading ethnobotanist who has traveled extensively in Sonora, consulted more than two hundred archival sources to answer this question. The result is an accessible ethnohistory of the Ópatas, one that embraces historical complexity with an eye toward Opatan strategies of resistance and assimilation. Yetman’s account takes us through the Opatans’ initial encounters with the conquistadors, their resettlement in Jesuit missions, clashes with Apaches, their recruitment as miners, and several failed rebellions, and ultimately arrives at an explanation for their “disappearance.” Yetman’s account is bolstered by conversations with present-day residents of the Opatería and includes a valuable appendix on the languages of the Opatería by linguistic anthropologist David Shaul. One of the few studies devoted exclusively to this indigenous group, The Ópatas: In Search of a Sonoran People marks a significant contribution to the literature on the history of the greater Southwest.
