I want to know the answer to the following question:
What were a large number of the local documents in regards to?
All the background I'm provided with is that "Spanish mendicants in the sixteenth century taught indigenous scribes in their communities to write their languages in Latin letters and there is a large number of local-level documents in Nahuatl, Zapotec, Mixtec, and Yucatec Maya from the colonial era, many of which were part of lawsuits and other legal matters.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: yes
