QUIROZ, Enriqueta. “Not only in jacales”: Ways of Living in the Indian Communities of Mexico City (1790-1813). Estud. hist. novohisp [online]. 2024, n.70, pp.121-151.  Epub 05-Abr-2024. ISSN 2448-6922.  https://doi.org/10.22201/iih.24486922e.2024.70.77779.

The article seeks to identify the neighborhood spaces occupied by indigenous people within Mexico City by the end of the colonial period. The central argument is that in the indigenous neighborhoods it was already possible to visualize constructive transformations in their ways of living, which would hypothetically be a sign of resilience and of agreements between merchants, brotherhoods, and convents to install solid, multifamily, and accessory buildings within a traditionally indigenous land, free of appraisals or taxes until at least 1812. The methodology used was to map the location of neighborhoods and their types of housing mainly from the information of property and tax registers, compared throughout different years: 1790, 1800, 1807, and 1813. The outcome was the differentiation between the indigenous neighborhoods, where those of the south-east stand out, with a greater attachment to traditional ways of life.
