Description

"A disappointing study of the Pastos, Quillacingas, and Abads in Southern Colombia between 1535-1700. Chapters focus on precolumbian inhabitants, ecology, Spanish land acquisition, colonial labor and tribute impositions, and the encomienda. Although based on several data-filled visitas, text is riddled with problems, ranging from unsupported interpretations to factual errors"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
