Description: Important reference study on the formation of human settlings and urbanization in Mesoamerica and some states in what is now the United States by the new "mestizo" society during the 16th century. The early colonial urban and regional planning were the result of evangelization missions and Hispanic teachings, where the regular clergy created provinces identified with the ethnology of the different Pre-Hispanic nations. These provinces composed by regional nets of ecclesiastical houses synchronized the hierarchies in the urban and regional sites, regenerating or founding them. The present book is an interdisciplinary, sequential, and comprehensive study of the Hispanic urbanization process through evangelization and teaching in the Pre-Columbian ethnic groups, nations, towns and tribes in the Americas, highlighting three important early ecclesiastical provinces: the Franciscan in San José of Yucatán; the Dominican of San Vicente Ferrer in Chiapas-Guatemala, and the Augustinian of San Nicolás Tolentino in Michoacán.
