Fort San Juan and the limits of empire : colonialism and household practice at the Berry Site / edited by Robin A. Beck, Christopher B. Rodning, and David G. Moore.
The private face of the Spaniard/Indian encounter is revealed through excavated features containing the remains of daily life at Cuenca, while its extraordinarily well-preserved buildings reveal much about relations between Indians and Spaniards and how these relations changed over the course of 18 months.
