Zusammenfassung: | IntroductionFrom contact to the colonial situation -- Cuba: the Spanish colonization -- El Chorro de Maíta: a first look -- Recognizing the living space -- The cemetery: death and human diversity -- Mortuary practices in a colonial environment -- An Indian town in times of the encomienda -- Summary and conclusions. This work enables scholars to examine how the encomienda labor draft worked in the hinterlands, without the everyday presence of Spanish overlords or priests. It allows not only the first opportunity to bring the key research at El Chorro to the attention of the international scholarly community, adding a new dimension to our understanding of the encomienda system, but also to reveal the earliest moments of the hybrid Cuban culture that persists today This work enables scholars to examine how the encomienda labor draft worked in the hinterlands, without the everyday presence of Spanish overlords or priests.
