Focusing on the two major areas of the Southwest that witnessed the most intensive and sustained colonial encounters, New Mexico and the Pimería Alta compares how different forms of colonialism and indigenous political economies resulted in diverse outcomes for colonists and Native peoples. Taking a holistic approach and studying both colonist and indigenous perspectives through archaeological, ethnohistorical, historical, and landscape data, contributors examine how the processes of colonialism played out in the American Southwest.
Although these broad areas—New Mexico and southern Arizona/northern Sonora—share a similar early colonial history, the particular combination of players, sociohistorical trajectories, and social relations within each area led to, and were transformed by, markedly diverse colonial encounters. Understanding these different mixes of players, history, and social relations provides the foundation for conceptualizing the enormous changes wrought by colonialism throughout the region. The presentations of different cultural trajectories also offer important avenues for future thought and discussion on the strategies for missionization and colonialism.
The case studies tackle how cultures evolved in the light of radical transformations in cultural traits or traditions and how different groups reconciled to this change. A much needed up-to-date examination of the colonial era in the Southwest, New Mexico and the Pimería Alta demonstrates the intertwined relationships between cultural continuity and transformation during a time of immense change and highlights contemporary thought on the colonial experience.

"The
volume
offers
an
insightful
pan-regional
perspective
on
colonialism
in
the
greater
Southwest
that
cuts
across
common
chronological
and
topical
divisions."
—Lee Panich, Santa Clara University
"New Mexico and the Pimería Alta is a timely addition to the archaeology of colonialism in the Americas. Douglass and Graves have assembled a wide range of authors and perspectives to examine the complexity of the colonial encounter in the Southwest from its earliest beginnings to the advent of the American period. This book is a great example of the high-quality archaeological research being conducted on this crucial era."
—Greg Schachner, UCLA
"As a collective, the articles provide an understanding of divergent colonial processes, setting a foundation for further synthesis and critique of the Spanish borderlands. Highly recommended."
—CHOICE
"[This] work offers many insightful and surprisingly readable contributions. . . . Readers—both general and specialized—should find the investment of time and money well spent."
