The contributors to this volume have combed through archival written documents, architectural plans, maps, ceramic artifacts, and bioarchaeological data from human remains recovered at the original Catholic cemetery to reconstruct a dramatic story of colonial life and death.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe documents reveal the religious and political strategies used by the Spanish Crown to implant European society; the skeletal evidence traces the human side of the story: physical hardship, the ravages of disease, body modifications (especially of teeth) to denote status, and forced assimilation of both natives and Africans. These nuanced discussions and insights reveal much about the complex, multiracial tapestry of the early Colonial period in Mexico.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eVera Tiesler\u003c\/b\u003e is professor of anthropology at the Facultad de Ciencias Antropológicas of the Universidad Autónoma de Yucatán, Merida, Mexico. \u003cb\u003ePilar Zabala\u003c\/b\u003e is professor of history at the Facultad de Ciencias Antropológicas of the Universidad Autónoma de Yucatán, Merida, Mexico. \u003cb\u003eAndrea Cucina\u003c\/b\u003e is professor of anthropology at the Facultad de Ciencias Antropológicas of the Universidad Autónoma de Yucatán, Merida, Mexico.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 276\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.9 x 9.1 x 6.1 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 28, 2010\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48875211620601,"sku":"9780813034928","price":121.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/uKYlDWKtX29780813034928.webp?v=1787333418","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/natives-europeans-and-africans-in-colonial-campeche-history-and-archaeology-library-binding","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
