505 0 $apt. 1. Contexts & conquests. Conquests. Recontextualizing calamity -- pt. 2. The Maya accounts of the conquest of Yucatan. The insinuated conquest: the Chontal account from Acalan-Tixchel. Conquest as chronology: the Annals of Oxkutzcab. The community view: the Calkini account. Maya conquistadors: the Pech accounts from Chicxulub and Yaxkukul. The cruel cycle: the accounts from the books of Chilam Balam. A hybrid perspective: The accounts by Gaspar Antonio Chi. The politics of conquest: the letters of the Batabob to the King. Conquest as negotiation: the perspective of petitions.
520 $aOur familiar images of Mexico's conquest are powerful and enduring - bold and blood-thirsty Spanish conquistadors, nobly savage Aztecs lamenting their broken spears, the triumph and tragedy of Cortes and Moctezuma.
520 8 $aBut one story has not been told - and it is one that reshapes our entire vision of the conquest. It is the Maya story of the Spanish creation of a colony in the ancient Maya homeland of Yucatan. Maya Conquistador tells this tale through a collection of unique first-hand accounts - most of them previously untranslated from the original Maya texts - written from the sixteenth through nineteenth centuries. In it are surprising twists: The conquistadors were not only Spaniards, but also Mayas, reconstituting their own sophisticated governance and society; and the conquest was not one catastrophic event, but the story of the survival of a vital and complex civilization evolving over centuries of contact with the Spanish and other peoples.
520 8 $aOut of this new chapter in history, the Maya emerge not as passive victims of European expansion, but as astute observers of their own past and participants in a rich tradition of cultural resilience.
