Abstract

This paper describes the development of the municipality of Santa María Natívitas Yancuitlalpan, situated in the south of the federal Mexican state of Tlaxcala, in particular from late colonial times to the revolution of 1910-1917. The population of the colony was Spanish and lived amongst the settlements of the native inhabitants. As such it represented the capital of Tenochtitlan-Mexico on a rather small scale and was praised as Little Spain. The author analyses its urban and socio-economic structure: Spanish town centre and Indian barrios, pueblos and haciendas. He also describes the dramatic end of the colony in 1914 and includes the remaining Spanish vestiges of popular culture.
