Se documenta la nota roja publicada sobre un crimen acontecido en una hacienda henequenera de Tekax, Yucatán, en 1890. Se analiza el manejo que la prensa dio a un homicidio, mientras se explica cómo se construyó el control social en el Yucatán rural, y se exploran las razones por las que el periodismo yucateco se interesó en el suceso. El interés del trabajo es explicar cómo la prensa decimonónica meridana presentó evidencias sobre el homicidio de un jornalero y mostró evidencias de cómo se integró en su nota roja una crítica a las condiciones laborales y al andamiaje legal y de investigación que cimentaban el maltrato de los jornaleros mayas por el personal del hacendado.Abstract: The «red note» published on a crime occurred in a henequen farm of Tekax Yucatan in 1890 is documented. The handling of the press gave homicide is analyzed, while explaining how social control was built in rural Yucatan, and the reasons why Yucatecan journalism was interested in the event. This work explain how the nineteenthcentury press of Merida presented evidence about the murder of a day laborer and showed evidence of how a criticism of working conditions and legal and investigative scaffolding that cemented the mistreatment of day laborers was integrated in their red note Maya by the landowner’s staff.Keywords: social control; social change; journalism; social critic; homicide.Résumé : Il s’agit d’une note rouge publiée à propos d’un crime survenu dans une exploitation d’henequen à Tekax, Yucatan en 1890. Est ainsi analysée la manière dont la presse a rendu compte d’un assassinat, tout en expliquant comment fonctionnait le contrôle social dans le Yucatan rural, et pourquoi le journalisme du Yucatan s’est intéressé à cet évènement. L’intérêt de cet article se trouve dans la manière de rendre compte d’un double processus : la presse de Mérida a présenté les preuves de l’assassinat d’un travailleur journalier, tout en intégrant dans la note rouge une critique des conditions de travail et une analyse de l’échafaudage juridique qui a contribué aux mauvais traitements subis par les journaliers mayas de la part du personnel du grand propriétaire.Mots-clés : contrôle social ; changement social ; journalisme ; critique sociale ; assassinat.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract This paper provides a comparative analysis of word-final nasals in Yucatecan Spanish and Yucatec Maya based on speech data from Quintana Roo (Mexico). In Yucatecan Spanish, a nasal is often pronounced as [m] if placed at the end of a word (e.g., Yucatá[m] instead of Yucatá[n]). Since this phenomenon is widespread on the Yucatán Peninsula, but largely unknown in other Spanish-speaking regions, it is often linked to the influence of the indigenous language Yucatec Maya. Our Spanish dataset differs from our Yucatec Mayan one in that the labialization rate significantly increases with the length of the subsequent pause in the former, but not in the latter. Thus, even if the feature was originally transferred from Yucatec Maya to Spanish, it seems that it has taken on a life of its own in Yucatecan Spanish, determined by its function as a marker of prosodic prominence.

Full textAbstract:
A new species of Heteranthera (Pontederiaceae), H. yucatana, is described, discussed, and iconographically documented based on material from Yucatan state, Mexico. The species is known from a few small ponds along a narrow strip of dry forests and shrublands over limestone outcrops and derived soils along the northwestern edge of the Yucatan Peninsula. The new species is related and has been hitherto confused with H. seubertiana from eastern Brazil but is easily distinguishable by its substantially smaller habit and flowers. Furthermore, the perianth lobes are lilac with a white-greenish basal blotch with yellowish towards the apex (as opposed to yellow lobes with proximal brownish spots). Also, the two lateral filaments are conspicuously inflated obliquely, as in Heteranthera mexicana, from which it differs by its much smaller vegetative size and some floral characters. The conservation status of the new species is assessed as Endangered according to the IUCN criteria. The genus Heteranthera consists of three species in the Yucatan Peninsula: H. dubia, H. limosa, and H. yucatana. Distributional maps for all Heteranthera from the area covered are presented. Finally, we offer a key to Heteranthera of the area.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractThis brief essay argues that studying the non-Spanish inhabitants of Yucatan's past requires bridging the social distance generated by differences of time and culture and that the specific nature of that distance must first be understood. With respect to the Mayas, their mystique in the modern popular and academic imaginations is as much the creation of Maya elites in ancient and colonial times as it is the product of archaeologists and historians. To demystify the Maya, we must engage mundane as well as exotic sources and be aware of the obfuscating influence of those who interpreted Maya culture before us. A complete picture of colonial Yucatan and of the colonial Mayas must include Afro-Yucatecans, or Africans and their descendents in the peninsula. Rendered invisible by historical processes and lack of scholarly attention, Afro-Yucatecans must be fully examined if we are to fully grasp the Yucatec experience, including the Yucatec Maya experience.

A lo largo de la segunda mitad del siglo XVIII la provincia de Yucatán enfrentó un permanente déficit hacendario como resultado de su creciente gasto militar. La sangría de recursos por parte de la Metrópoli y la desarticulación del sistema fiscal colonial, resultado de la guerra de Independencia, llevaron a Yucatán en 1814 a una crisis financiera. Este artículo analiza, desde la perspectiva de las finanzas coloniales, el déficit fiscal y los mecanismos para solventarlo. El estudio se sustenta en la organización de los ramos hacendarios bajo los principios fiscales coloniales. During the second half of the eighteenth-century the province of Yucatan faced a permanent fiscal deficit as a result of the increasing military expenses. The continuos draining from Spain and the disarticulation of the colonial fiscal system as well as the effects of the independence war lead Yucatan into a financial crisis. This article analizes the fiscal deficit and the strategies to solve it from the colonial finances perspective. In order to accomplish this, the organization of the fields of the royal treasury, under the colonial fiscal principles was necessary.

La soja en el estado de Yucatán, México, es un cultivo relativamente nuevo (a partir de 2009) que, sin embargo, se ha expandido aceleradamente en tierras anteriormente sembradas con maíz y pastizales para ganadería, en el marco de un proceso de reconversión productiva. El presente artículo tiene como objetivo el estudio de las causas o factores que han motivado dicha expansión, así como sus efectos en la estructura agraria y productiva de Yucatán, todo lo cual implica el análisis de las políticas agrícolas y los incentivos de mercado a diferentes escalas (local–global). Uno de los hallazgos de la investigación reveló la existencia de importantes diferencias entre las dos regiones productoras de dicho grano, el Oriente y el Sur, entre las cuales figura la tipología de sus productores. Así, mientras en la primera región el cultivo de la soja es empresarial, en la segunda prevalecen grandes productores (ejidatarios), que rentan las tierras de los ejidos sureños, pasando los arrendadores a una situación de “exclusión productiva”. Sin ser el objetivo central, también se señalan los efectos negativos que el cultivo de la soja ha tenido en diversos ámbitos (medio ambiente, biodiversidad, deforestación, salud humana y animal), así como en la economía de los apicultores yucatecos.
Palabras clave: soja; política agrícola; renta de tierras; Yucatán; México. Soybeans in the state of Yucatan, Mexico, is a relatively new crop (as of 2009) that, however, has expanded rapidly on previously cultivated areas with corn and pastures for livestock. The objective of this article is to study the causes or factors that have motivated this expansion, as well as its effects on the agrarian and productive structure of Yucatan, all of which implies the analysis of agricultural policies and market incentives at different scales (local-global). One of the findings of the investigation revealed the existence of important differences between the two producing regions of this grain, the East and he South, among which is the typology of its producers, since while in the first the cultivation of soy is entreprenurial, the second prevails large producers (ejidatarios), who lease the lands of the southern ejidos, entering the landlords to a process of "productive exclusion". Without being the central objective, the negative effects that the cultivation of soybean has had in different areas (environment, biodiversity, deforestation, human and animal health), as well as the impact on Yucatan beekeepers are also pointed out.

Full textAbstract:
Previous research has indicated that in Yucatan Spanish, /ptk/ are aspirated at greater levels than in other varieties, a feature attributed to contact with Yucatec Maya, a language that has both aspirated and ejective voiceless stops. The current study presents the first quantitative, acoustic, variationist investigation of the linguistic and social factors that constrain aspiration (as measured by VOT) in Yucatan Spanish. Analyses, conducted using mixed-effects statistical models, indicate that VOT values are longer in stressed syllables and phrase initially, and also before non-low vowels. Regarding social factors, men consistently favor longer VOT, along with older speakers. While no significant result was obtained based on language background (Maya-Spanish bilinguals vs. Spanish monolinguals), there is evidence of the influence of language and dialect contact on the observed patterns. Further results and conclusions are discussed.

Full textAbstract:
The discovery of a number of prehispanic saltmaking sites on the southern coast of Belize by the Point Placencia Archaeological Project suggests a concern with local saltmaking during the Late Classic and perhaps later periods. Previously, only one small source was thought to have produced salt in prehispanic Belize, and it was believed that most of this mineral was imported from the northern coast of Yucatan. This paper describes the sites located by our survey and offers an interpretation of the local saltmaking process. It is suggested that Placencia salt was inferior in quality to that from Yucatan, and that it might have been consumed by commoners, while elites were able to obtain pure Yucatecan salt.

Full textAbstract:
In this study, the population structure of the white grunt (Haemulon plumieri) from the northern coast of the Yucatan Peninsula was determined through an otolith shape analysis based on the samples collected in three locations: Celestún (N 20°49’,W 90°25’), Dzilam (N 21°23’, W 88°54’) and Cancún (N 21°21’,W 86°52’). The otolith outline was based on the elliptic Fourier descriptors, which indicated that the H. plumieri population in the northern coast of the Yucatan Peninsula is composed of three geographically delimited units (Celestún, Dzilam, and Cancún). Significant differences were observed in mean otolith shapes among all samples (PERMANOVA; F2, 99 = 11.20, P = 0.0002), and the subsequent pairwise comparisons showed that all samples were significantly differently from each other. Samples do not belong to a unique white grunt population, and results suggest that they might represent a structured population along the northern coast of the Yucatan Peninsula. En este estudio, la estructura de la población del ronco blanco (Haemulon plumieri) de la costa norte de la Península de Yucatán fue determinada a través del análisis de la forma del otolito, sobre la base de las muestras recolectadas en tres localidades: Celestún (N 20°49’, W 90°25’), Dzilam (N 21°23’, W 88°54’) y Cancún (N 21° 21’, O 86° 52’). El análisis del contorno de los otolitos se basó en los descriptores elípticos de Fourier, cuyo enfoque indicó que la población de H. plumieri en la costa norte de la Península de Yucatán se compone al menos de tres unidades delimitadas geográficamente (Celestún, Dzilam y Cancún). Se observaron diferencias significativas en la forma del otolito entre todas las muestras (PERMANOVA, F2, 99 = 11.20, P = 0.0002) y las comparaciones por pares posteriores indicaron que todas las muestras fueron significativamente diferentes una de otra. Al parecer, las muestras no pertenecen a una única población, y los resultados sugieren que podría representar una población bien estructurada a lo largo de la costa norte de la Península de Yucatán.

En México, y particularmente en la península de Yucatán, el uso del fogón abierto de tres piedras y de leña combustible es un recurso de gran importancia por su cantidad de usuarios, el sustento histórico-cultural y su significado dentro del complejo de tecnologías tradicionales. Su existencia actual representa un proceso de autonomía de las poblaciones indígenas, campesinas y pobres respecto a las redes hegemónicas de energéticos convencionales. En este artículo se describen las características del fogón abierto y de las especies preferidas como leña con base en observaciones realizadas en 4,000 viviendas de 39 localidades de Yucatán y Quintana Roo, México. Se analiza el proceso de transferencia tecnológica y se describe un proceso de entrega de fogones del gobierno federal en Yucatán, interpretándose como una política de subsidio de carbono hacia la industria capitalista local y como una forma de neutralizar lo autónomo tradicional y los esfuerzos de la sociedad civil organizada por impulsar el desarrollo participativo y comunitario.
ABSTRACTIn Mexico and particularly on the Yucatan peninsula, the use of the three-stone open fire cook stove and fire wood fuel is a phenomenon of great importance due to the number of people using it, its historical-cultural background and its meaning within the complex of traditional technologies. Its current existence represents a process of autonomy of the indigenous, peasant and poor populations with respect to the hegemonic networks of conventional sources of energy. Based on observations of 4000 households in 39 locations in Yucatan and Quintana Roo, Mexico, this article describes the characteristics of the open fire cook stove as well as the preferred types of firewood. It analyzes the transfer of technology and describes the process of delivery of open fire cook stoves by the federal government in Yucatan, interpreting it as a carbon subsidy policy for both local capitalist industry and developed countries, and as a way of neutralizing traditional autonomy and the efforts of organized civil society to promote participatory and community development.

Abstract. A small rodent species was studied in two agroecosystems from Yucatan: (1) a traditional cornfield and (2) an induced grassland. A total of 87 individuals of six species in two families (Heteromyidae y Cricetidae) were captured rendering an effort of 2,544 nights/trap. Heteromys gaumeri and Peromyscus yucatanicus were the most abundant species with 57.5% and 17.2% of total captures, respectively. Highest captures were recorded in the traditional cornfield and the highest species richness was obtained in the grassland. No significant differences in diversity were found between sites (p > 0.05). It seems that the cornfield plays an important role on both the diversity and population dynamics of small rodents because it presents the highest values in captures, density, recruitment, and in reproductive individuals. This may be related to a greater variety of cultivated plant species in this agroecosystem. Key words: Small mammals, rodents, Cornfield, Grassland, Yucatan, Mexico.

The Mexican ("Aztec") 365-day calendar and the Western Maya (Yucatec) 365 day calendar in use at the time of the Spanish conquests of Mexico and the Yucatan have an invariable relation to each other. The first nine mesomonths (named 20-day intervals) of the Yucatec 365-day calendar are coterminous with the last nine mesomonths of the "Aztec" calendar. The proof reconfirms the validity of the modified Thompson (584,283) correlation between Mesoamerican and European calendars.

AbstractA major impediment to understanding the Terminal Classic to Early Postclassic transition in northern Yucatan has been the lack of a reliable ceramic chronology defined from stratigraphic contexts at the site of Chichen Itza. The temporal relationship of Cehpech and Soluta ceramics is central to resolving the issue of the correct chronological placement of Chichen Itza. The results of stratigraphic excavations at Yula, a small site 5 km south of Chichen Itza, provide the strongest evidence to date that Cehpech and Sotuta ceramics were contemporaneous. Statistical analysis of pottery composition by stratum confirms a positive correlation between Sotuta and Cehpech, which are clearly differentiated from earlier pottery. Rather than following a linear sequence in which Cehpech precedes Sotuta, as suggested by R. E. Smith and other early researchers, these two slatewares represent coeval regional variation. Thus, the major occupation of Chichen Itza dates not to the Early Postclassic, but to the Terminal Classic. The results of this research contribute toward the redefinition of the Terminal Classic and Early Postclassic periods in the northern Maya lowlands.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractA long low mound of rubble incompletely surrounds part of the central zone at the Classic Period site of Chunchucmil, Yucatan, Mexico. This wall was hastily built from stone robbed from nearby buildings and roadbeds and it clearly served as a defensive barricade. All indications are that the barricade represents a one-time event whereupon the site was attacked, overrun, and abandoned. Re-analysis of other known fortified sites across Yucatan"s northern plains show some fundamental similarities. I suggest that all sites with barricades still standing suffered wars of annihilation rather than wars of conquest and subjugation by the victors. I suggest that the Chunchucmil distribution node was annihilated because its proximity to consumption centers in nuclear Mesoamerica reduced the competitiveness of other Yucatecan coastal trade sites that were located further away along the Gulf Coast maritime trade route.

T. cruzi refers tropism to heart, causing various lesions and colonizing with nests of amastigotes; so the histological examination of this tissue helps for diagnosis. A total of 262 individuals were captured in Yucatan, Mexico; all considered in the microscopic analysis, in which different lesions consistent with T. cruzi infection were identified: inflammatory cell infiltration (86.7%), degeneration of cardiac fibers (6.8%) and pericarditis (6.3%). It was also possible to identify several nests with amastigotes (2.2%). This is the first histological study made in synanthropic rodents probably infected by T. cruzi in Yucatan, Mexico.

AbstractFollowing the military campaigns of conquest in sixteenth-century Yucatan, the Order of Friars Minor Observant assumed the task of controlling, by culture conversion, the indigenous Yucatec Maya. The fundamental vehicle for this program of social engineering was the built environment of the mission, composed of the chapel, atrium, and friary, and the associated village. Archaeological remains of mission sites are horizon markers for the earliest phases of permanent Hispanic presence on the peninsula, ca. 1545–1572. Mission villages specify locations where the friars reorganized pre-Hispanic Maya settlements according to Spanish sociopolitical norms. Increasing complexity in mission-chapel architecture marks the stages of this reorganization. In this article, I discuss the historical origin of the friars' policies and the context of their implementation in Yucatan; model the spatial, temporal, architectural, and behavioral variables the Franciscans employed to extend and maintain Hispanic hegemony; provide comparative data from seventeenth-century New Mexico and La Florida; and outline a general theory of Franciscan activity in the New World.

Archaeologists have long noted similarities between the lithic artifacts of the first colonists of the Greater Antilles (ca. 3500-2000 B.C.) and those from the eastern Yucatán Peninsula. Recent archaeological work in northern Belize has provided additional archaeological information on the characteristics and dating of the mainland assemblages. New findings by Caribbean archaeologists also have contributed to a clearer picture of the circumstances surrounding the first human migration to the Greater Antilles. A Yucatecan origin for the first Caribbean migrants is now considered probable.

Marsdenia (Apocynaceae: Asclepiadoideae, Marsdeniae) is represented by five species in the Mexican Yucatan Peninsula (vs. seven in the whole of the province), one of which is herein proposed as new to science. The new species, Mardenia calichicola Carnevali & Juárez-Jaimes, is only known from a narrow strip of sub-xerophytic forests over calcareous, rocky soils along the northwestern edge in the Yucatán state of Mexico. Marsdenia calichicola is morphologically similar and likely related to M. gallardoae and M. trivirgulata. Among other characters, it differs from Marsdenia gallardoae by the presence of a corona composed of cushion-like calli (corolla lacking calli in M. gallardoae) whereas M. trivirgulata has a glabrous or glabrescent corolla (vs. pubescent in M. calichicola); additional characters are herein discussed. We provide pertinent iconography to aid in the identification of the new species plus a key to diagnose the three species in the M. trivirgulata complex. The conservation status of the new taxon is assessed against the IUCN criteria as CR. A distribution map and a key to the species of Marsdenia from the Yucatan Peninsula Biotic Province are presented.

The research results on prehistoric Mesoamerican settlements in Mexico are presented through the planners’, rather than the archeological, point of view. Numerous settlement types and sizes were analyzed by comparing the archeological data and the personal experience gained during the research in situ. Even though the cities were unplanned, derived results proved the astonishingly high level in the construction of structures and buildings in relation to astronomical phenomena.

En este artículo exploro cómo los mayas yucatecos emplean el silencio como una de las principales estrategias de resistencia a la asimilación, y sugiero que ayuda a explicar su indiferencia a la legislación recientemente aprobada para proteger sus derechos. En parte, baso mi análisis en conversaciones con jóvenes y abuelos, cuyas profecías y prácticas cotidianas contribuyen a la continuada fortaleza de la cultura, de cara a las políticas neo-coloniales del presente. La creencia de que «no pasa nada en Yucatán» alimenta la noción de una apatía maya, pero que tiene sus raíces en los discursos oficiales y académicos que históricamente han descartado a los mayas por considerarlos irrelevantes en la esfera pública. Por último, examino cómo los mayas han adaptado sus estrategias para preservar sus autonomías, a pesar de las políticas paternalistas dirigidas a su asimilación.
THE AUTONOMY OF THE MAYAN PEOPLES OF YUCATAN AND THEIR SILENCE IN RELATION TO ASSIMILATION POLICIES AND THE LEGISLATION OF THEIR RIGHTSABSTRACTIn this article the author explores how the Mayans from Yucatan use silence as one of their main strategies to resist assimilation, suggesting that this helps explain their indifference toward the recently approved legislation to protect their rights. Her analysis is based in part on conversations with young people and elders whose prophesies and everyday practices contribute to the ongoing strength of their culture in the face of current neo-colonial policies. The belief that «nothing happens in Yucatan» feeds the notion of the existence of apathy among the Mayans, and has its roots in the official and academic discourses that historically have discarded the Mayans as irrelevant to the public sphere. Lastly, it examines how in spite of the paternalistic policies aimed at assimilation, the Mayans have adapted their strategies in order to preserve their autonomy.

OBJECTIVE: We carried out an exploratory study to determine the infection with Trypanosoma cruzi in the gray fox (U. cinereoargenteus) and the southern spotted skunk (S. angustifrons) in Yucatan, Mexico. METHODS: We used samples from various organs (heart, skeletal muscle, kidney, spleen, liver, esophagus, and stomach) corresponding to individuals of gray fox and spotted skunk, captured in the peridomicile of eight rural localities of Yucatan between the period 1990–2008. The presence of T. cruzi DNA in tissue samples was determined by PCR technique and histopathology study. RESULTS: All the individuals studied had at least one tissue sample with T. cruzi DNA. The esophagus (9/13), heart (7/13), and skeletal muscle (6/13) were the organs with the highest frequency of T. cruzi DNA. No nests of amastigotes were found, however, microscopic observation revealed lesions characteristic of T. cruzi infection, such as inflammatory infiltrate by lymphocytes and histiocytes with or without necrosis of cardiomyocytes cells, and proliferation of fibrocytes, fibroblasts and collagen fibers (fibrosis). CONCLUSIONS: Our results confirm that these two wild carnivores are natural hosts for T. cruzi in Yucatan, Mexico. The synanthropic behavior of these two mammals in Yucatan makes it necessary to focus future studies on their role within the rural peridomiciliary transmission cycle of T. cruzi in the Yucatan Peninsula.

First reports of green turtles Chelonia mydas with fibropapillomas, in Yucatán, México Fibropapillomas are cutaneous tumors that affect the health of marine turtles worldwide. In July 11th of 1998, a juvenile green turtle (Chelonia mydas) with tumors was captured by fishermen in the Sea Turtles Sanctuary of Rio Lagartos, Yucatán. The straight carapace length of this turtle was 44.6 cm, and we found 30 tumors with a size from 1 cm - 10 cm on the back flippers, neck, front flippers and in both eyes. On July 10th, 1999, another juvenile green turtle with fibropapillomatosis was captured by fishermen in the same area. This turtle was smaller (S.C.L. = 40.8 cm) with 5 small tumors (1 cm - 4 cm) on the back flippers and tail. The prevalence of fibro papillomatosis in Yucatan is low (2.4%). Considering the migratory route of this species and the high prevalence of green turtles with fibropapillomas in Florida, USA, we suggest an initial contagion between the populations of these peninsulas. Those are the first documented reports of green turtles with fibropapillomas in Yucatán, México.

AbstractContinuing analysis of the site of Chichen Itza suggests that its construction dates primarily to the Late Classic period, ca. a.d. 700–1000, rather than the Early Postclassic. This paper examines the implications of this redating for the well-known “Toltec” problem. Since Chichen largely antedated Tollan-phase Tula, we conclude that what is usually identified as Toltec imagery in fact dates to an earlier Epiclassic horizon extending from Morelos and Puebla to the Gulf Coast and Yucatan. Chichen Itza, we suggest, was the eastern node in a network of shrine centers dedicated primarily to Quetzalcoatl/Kukulcan. This network transcended political boundaries and included such sites as Cholula, Cacaxtla, El TajIn, Xochicalco, and ultimately Tula. The Quetzalcoatl cult is manifested by a specific complex of traits and seems to have expanded militarily with messianic vigor. Pilgrimage was also an important activity at these centers. This cult axis apparently continued into the Postclassic period, and was responsible for the distribution of the Mixteca-Puebla art style. In Yucatan, Mayapan would seem to have assumed Chichen's position as the major Yucatecan node, although accompanied by several new shrines along the Caribbean coast.

Full textAbstract:
This paper offers an approach to Yucatecan social reality in terms of entrepreneurship and the process of creating companies dedicated to the production and/or commercialization of agroecological products, considering its contribution to sustainable rural development. The key actors’ perspective towards the existence of policies that favor land sustainability, assist in the development of rural areas and their population, and support these business initiatives is also presented. Likewise, it illustrates the small entrepreneurs’ standpoint on the role of public institutions in promoting wealth generation and sustainable development in lower growth areas, such as the state of Yucatan, in Mexico. A qualitative methodology was used for this research, based on in-depth interviews with a group of businessmen and -women from the region. The main results give a pessimistic view of institutional concern regarding both production and consumption of agroecological products and, therefore, the promotion of these enterprises for the socioeconomic development of Yucatan. From these findings, we detect: (a) A policy of scarce support for this type of production, due to political priorities; (b) inadequate management that prevents the consolidation of certain structures needed to support agroecological enterprises; (c) a lack of confidence in the Yucatecan government, which does not promote or support a social network of collaboration between agroecological producers and marketers; (d) a difficulty in undertaking agroecological enterprises because of social and cultural norms and poor environmental awareness among the population; (e) significant training deficiencies among entrepreneurs in agroecological agriculture; (f) absence of adequate distribution channels for agroecological products; and (g) excessive bureaucratic obstacles through laws that hinder entrepreneurial processes.

La gobernación de Yucatán fue a menudo descrita como una provincia periférica del imperio hispánico, no solo en razón a su alejamiento de la Audiencia de México, sino también porque nunca fue completamente conquistada, permaneciendo amplios territorios fuera del control colonial durante siglos. Sin embargo, en el siglo XVI tanto los defensores de indios, como los procuradores de los cabildos españoles mantuvieron una estrecha relación con la Audiencia de México y con el Consejo de Indias. El objetivo del presente trabajo consiste en rastrear los desplazamientos físicos, así como la producción escrita de aquellos actores con el fin de medir el impacto diferenciado que tuvieron estos dos factores en el proceso legal. Se examinarán con especial atención las estrategias des plegadas para obstaculizar la libre circulación de las personas y de los documentos a través del imperio y su impacto en la promulgación de leyes relacionadas con la población maya de Yucatán.
Abstract
The province of Yucatan has been often described as a Spanish empire’s periphery, not only because of its farness from the Courts (of Mexico and Spain), but also because of its conquest’s incompleteness, since extensive territories remained out of the colonial control for centuries. However, in the sixteenth century the Defensores (or advocates) of the Indians, as well as the Procuradores (or representatives) of the local Spanish towns maintained a close relationship with both the Mexican Court and the Council of the Indies. This article examines those actors’ travels, as well as the circulation of the documents they produced in order to determine the differential impact of those two factors on the production of imperial law. Special attention will be paid to the strategies aimed at interfering with the free circulation of persons and documents across the empire and its impact on the enactment of decrees related to the indigenous people of Yucatan.

The records come from explorations in Dzilam de Bravo, Yucatan, and from Puerto Aventuras and the Nohoch Nah Chich and Ox Bel Ha cave systems near Tulum in Quintana Roo, Mexico. For five of the 17 species dealt with here, the records presented constitute the second time those species are reported after their original descriptions. For the alpheid shrimp Yagerocaris cozumel, we present the first record of the species for continental Yucatan and for the atyid shrimp Jonga serrei, the second record from Mexico. Depth data are provided for all species.
