Welcome to the tenth issue of the Nahua Newsletter. Reader responses to the Newsletter continue to be extremely positive and we now have nearly 300 subscribers. The success of the Nahua Newsletter is due to the efforts of its founder and editor Brad Huber who correctly saw a need to increase communication among the world's scholars interested in the history, language, and culture of Nahua peoples. Brad created the Nahua Newsletter, assembled a mailing list, edited and distributed the first nine issues, and secured the funding to support publication. After this effort in establishing the Newsletter as a successful and important tool for students of Nahua culture, Brad has decided to direct his attention to other projects. To assure the continuity of the Newsletter, Brad turned editing responsibilities over to me beginning with this issue. It is my intention to follow Brad's editorial policies as best I can and to maintain the high standards we have all come to expect of the Nahua Newsletter.
From now on please send all news, announcements, requests for cooperation, changes of address, and suggestions to the following address:

I plan to continue distributing the Newsletter free of charge biannually in the fall and spring. The division of Arts and Sciences and the Department of Anthropology of Indiana-Purdue University at Fort Wayne have generously agreed to support publication for the next year. During this period, I will be searching for a permanent source of funding to cover printing and mailing costs. If anyone has suggestions about where I might obtain support for the Newsletter I would appreciate it if you would contact me.
I look forward to hearing from you with the latest news of your activities. Please join me in expressing appreciation to Brad for his creative vision of giving Nahua afficionados a means to keep in closer communication with one another.

Hugo Nutini writes that during the first week in November of 1989, a colloquium entitled "Messico Terra d'Incontro: La Cultura Mestiza" ("Mexico Land of Encounters: The Mestizo Culture") took place in Rome, Italy. It was sponsored by the Dipartimento de Studi Glottoantropologici (Department of Anthropology) of the University of Rome. The participants included scholars from Mexico, Europe, and the United States: Solange Alberro (Colegio de México), Félix Báez-Jorge (Universidad Veracruzana, Jalapa), Marcello Carmagnani (Università di Torino), Pedro Carrasco (State University of New York), Henri Favre (CNRS, Paris), Serge Gruzinski (CNRS, Paris), John Ingham (University of Minnesota), Alfredo López Austin (Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México), Hugo G. Nutini (University of Pittsburgh), Luisa Pranzetti (Università di Roma), Julian Pitt-Rivers (Ecole Pratique des Hautes Etudes, Paris), and Italo Signorini (Università di Roma).
The participants delivered papers on several aspects of Mestizo culture which generated a significant amount of discussion. The topics presented and discussed were the following: the dynamics of ethnic status (Pitt-Rivers), Indian and Mestizo relations (Favre), religious mestizaje and the Mesoamerican tradition (López Austin), religious syncretism (Ingham), religious mentality and popular Catholicism (Nutini), Mestizo cultural traditions (Carrasco), social and symbolic aspects of compadrazgo (Báez-Jorge), Creole sociability and acculturation (Alberro), syncretism and folk medicine (Signorini), transculturation and literary traditions (Pranzetti), and mestizaje of image and object (Gruzinski). Syncretism, acculturation, diffusion, and convergence were recurrent themes that the participants employed in explaining the structure and formation of contemporary Mestizo culture. The most salient characteristic that pervaded the colloqium was the concern of distinguishing Indian from Mestizo culture and society, but equally important, highlighting the common traditions from which they developed and the dynamics of divergence.
The papers of the colloquium with an introduction by Signorini and a conclusion by Nutini have just been published in two issues of L'Uomo (Italian journal of social and cultural anthropology). The price of the two issues is 50,000 lire (approximately $38.00 U.S.) and they can be ordered directly from the publisher: Giardini Editori e Stampatori in Pisa, Via S. Bibbiana 28, 56100 Pisa Italy.
This is an important work that should be brought to the attention of Mesoamericanists, particularly because comparatively little has been written by anthropologists on Mestizo culture and society, and there is no comprehensive volume with the range of topics of the two issues of L'Uomo (1990). The work should be of interest to graduate and undergraduate students and professional anthropologists working with Mestizo populations in rural and urban environments.

I recently read a paper entitled "Curación y
cosmología: el reto de las medicinas populares" at
the Primer Congreso Salud-Enfermedad en Mexico de la Prehistoria
al Siglo XX, held in Mexico City. For this academic year I will
be resident Fellow of the Women's Studies Program, Hunter College
of the City University of New York (address: CUNY 695 Park Avenue,
New York, NY 10021). I was granted a Humanist in Residence Rockefeller
Fellowship for my project entitled, "Gender Complementarity:
Developing a Broader Perspective for the Study of Gender in Mesoamerica."
I would like to get in touch with anyone working on gender
in Mesoamerica through the Nahua Newsletter. It is such
a useful tool to get in touch with other scholars working on
related issues to one's own.
I have an article entitled, "Traditional Medicine, Rituals of Healing and Women" to appear in Concilium (Spring 1991). Christianity and Crisis published an interview with me entitled "Mexican Women" in the July, 1990 issue.

Research interests: contemporary Nahuas, religion, social organization, slash and burn horticulture, ethnicity. Current activities: My book Corn is Our Blood: Culture and Ethnic Identity in a Contemporary Aztec Indian Village has been accepted by the University of Oklahoma Press for publication in their Civilization of the American Indian series. The work is ethnographic in nature with a focus on how and why Nahuas of northern Veracruz create and maintain their ethnic identity. It is written with a minimum of technical jargon so that it will be appropriate for use in the classroom.

Research interests: documenting the influence of Nahuatl in the northern frontier, the introduction of loan words into the northern frontier, the influence of Nahuatl grammar in the writing of grammars in native languages of the northern frontier. Note: I would like to solicit loan words from Nahuatl into other indigenous languages of northern New Spain (Coahuilla, Zacatecas, Chihuahua, Sonora, Jalisco, New Mexico, Arizona, California).

During the summer of 1990, I will be collecting paste samples of Late Postclassic "tipo codice" ceramics from collections in Mexico City, Tlaxcala, Puebla, and Oaxaca. These will be analyzed by Ron Bishop at the Smithsonian. The purpose of the research is to identify the place of production and the subsequent distribution of this distinctive ceramic. Also during the summer of 1990, I will be analyzing god effigy censers from excavations of Late Postclassic sites in the Tehuacan Valley, Puebla. During the spring of 1991, I anticipate beginning a project at the site of Tehuacan Viejo. The site is interesting because it has Classic, Postclassic, and early Colonial occupations. Mapping, surface collecting, and the excavation of stratigraphic pits during the first field season will provide data for planning subsequent excavation strategy and development of the site.

Research interests: ethnohistorical sources, ancient and modern folk literature. I am preparing a study about Aztec personal names (types of names, their social significance). Manuscript to be finished this summer. At the University of Utrecht will soon be published the result of a symposium organized within the framework of the International Congress of Americanists held in Amsterdam in 1988. The topic of this symposium was dualistic structures and organizations in pre Spanish Mesoamerica. About half the number of studies included refer to Nahua culture and society. Rudolf van Zantwijk, Rob de Ridder, and Edwin Braakhuis are the editors. Authors of papers include Nigel Davies, Jacqueline Durand-Forest, Michael Graulich, Carmen Aguilera and many others.
