Nahua Society Steering Commitee

Welcome to the ninth issue of the Nahua Newsletter. There are now over 280 subscribers. I thank everyone for making this the largest and most informative issue to date. The assistance of Hannah James, Alan R. Sandstrom, Paul Jean Provost, the College of Charleston, and Indiana-Purdue University are gratefully acknowledged. I am pleased to report that a group of approximately 20 specialists met at the November 1989 meeting of the American Anthropological Association in Washington DC to discuss the future of Nahua scholarship. A general consensus was reached regarding the formation of a Nahua Society Steering Committee to plan and coordinate symposia at future meetings of this and other professional societies. It was suggested that the committee be composed of 3-6 individuals, that committee members serve two-year terms, and that members be selected on alternate years. The editor is now accepting nominations (including self-nominations) of individuals to the steering committee. Procedures for their selection will be discussed at the 1990 AAA meeting at New Orleans.

1990 AAA Meeting

Paul Jean Provost (Indiana-Purdue University) is organizing a symposium for the November 28- December 2, 1990 meeting of the American Anthropological Association in New Orleans. Previous symposia for Nahua scholars were very well received. It is expected that this symposium will draw participants from the U.S., Mexico, and Europe. Two sessions, followed by a reception, are being planned. The symposium is tentatively entitled "The Aztec Heritage: Perspectives on Self, Society, and Culture." Paul Provost hopes to attract specialists from a wide variety of disciplines: archaeology, art history, physical anthropology, ethnohistory, linguistics, cultural anthropology, etc. If you are interested in presenting a paper, you should send a: 1) "Proposal for Paper" form, 2) "Advanced Registration" form, and 3) a check for the registration fee made out to the American Anthropological Association to:

Paul Jean Provost
Department of Anthropology
Indiana-Purdue University
2101 Coliseum Blvd. East
Fort Wayne, Indiana 46805

The above forms appear in the January 1990 "Anthropology Newsletter," or can be obtained by writing to Paul Provost. The registration fee is $60.00 for members. These items must reach Paul no later than March 21st.

Call for papers

1. Karen Dakin (UNAM) notes that "Tlalocan (Vol. XI) should be out in January 1990. We are preparing Vol. XII and are interested in texts and documents for XII and future volumes."

2. Yolanda Lastra (UNAM) informs us that:

"The next UTO-AZTECAN working conference will be held in Mexico City at the Instituto de Investigaciones Antropologicas, UNAM June 28-29, 1990. The meetings will be on Thursday and Friday, June 28-29. Titles and abstracts of papers should be sent to Yolanda Lastra before April 15 at: Instituto de Investigaciones Antropologicas, UNAM, CU, Mexico D.F. 04510.

"Since it was agreed that everyone should stay at the same hotel, you are requested to stay at the Hotel Majestic, a Best Western, right on the Zóocalo. This is a large hotel that can offer us enough rooms for everyone. It will offer a discount to those attending the meetings, so be sure you mention the name of the conference. The discount prices are as follows: Single room: $32.00; Double room: $35.00; Triple room: $38.00. Please write to make your reservation yourself. If you want to share a room, you have to arrange this among yourselves.

"The hotel requires a 50% deposit of the total amount, which will be due 15 days before arrival. Since mail is very slow, you should allow another two weeks for your letter to be received. Your letter should be sent May 25th in order to be on the safe side. If you cancel a reservation 10 days before arrival, you get your money back; if not, you get charged "no show" for one night. When you write, please mention that you are with the group meeting at Antropologicas, and you want to stay at the Majestic. Give date and approximate time of arrival and departure.

The address to write to is: Oficina de Reservaciones, Hostales de Mexico, Av. Madero 30, 06600 Mexico D.F. (Telephone: 521-86-00: Telex: 01772770 RITZME; FAX5183466).

The program will be as follows:

3. Robert D. Shadow (Universidad de las Américas, Puebla) notifies us of the following meetings:

"From May 29 to June 9, 1990, the VIII SIMPOSIO NACIONAL DE RELIGION POPULAR Y ETNICIDAD Y EL III REUNION LATINO AMERICANA SOBRE RELIGION POPULAR y ETNICIDAD will be held at the Escuela Nacional de Antropologia e Historia in Mexico City. Themes of the conference include: Catholicism and Protestantism, Systems of Representation, Religious Movements, Ethnicity, and Systems of Traditional Knowledge. Scholars interested in attending or in presenting papers are invited to contact immediately: Elio Masferrer Kan, A.P. 21-456, Coyoacan, 04000, Mexico, D.F.; Tel: 655-7018, 655-7271, or 655-7450, Ext. 153. Those interested in receiving the newsletter RELIGION y SOCIEDAD (R Y S): PUBLICACION SEMESTRAL DE LA RED LATINO AMERICANA DE RELIGION Y SOCIEDAD should write to the same address.

Robert D. Shadow and Carlos Garma Navarro (Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana-Iztapalapa) are organizing a round table discussion on the theme of pilgrimage behavior in Mexico. Tentatively, the two or three day event is scheduled for mid-May, 1990, and will be held on the campus of the Universidad de las Américas-Puebla, in Cholula, Puebla. Since pilgrimage behavior is one of the least discussed expressions of popular religion in the anthropological literature of Mesoamerica, one of the goals of this meeting will be to identify the diverse forms, meanings, shrines and social groups that constitute the pilgrimage phenomena in the region. We suspect that many anthropologists, historians, geographers, and other social scientists have information on pilgrimages but that little of this material has been published. The meeting, therefore, is conceived as an initial step in providing an empirical base for subsequent theoretical analysis. We are particularly interested in reports from researchers who have accompanied pilgrim groups in their journey to sacred shrines or sanctuaries, whether these be oriented toward Catholic or non-Catholic supernatural beings. Scholars interested in participating in this event with either empirical or theoretical papers are urged to write, or better yet phone: Robert D. Shadow, Departamento de Antropologia, Universidad de las Américas-Puebla, A.P. 100, Santa Catarina Mártir, 72820 Puebla, Mexico; Tel: (22) 47-00-00 Ext. 194. A copy of the article Símbolos que amarran, símbolos de dividen: Hegemonia e impugnacion en una peregrinacion campesina a Chalma, by R. Shadow and Maria Rodriguez Valdex is also available upon request.

Second Call: The Departamento de Antropologia of the Universidad de las Américas-Puebla will be organizing a three-day to week-long series of conferences entitled `II Simposio de Cholula,' to be held in June, 1990, on the campus of the Universidad de las Américas-Puebla, in Cholula, Puebla. The focus is on the archaeology, ethnohistory, ethnography, and linguistics of the region of Cholula, and surrounding areas including Tlaxcala, the Sierra Norte, Morelos, and Oaxaca. Interested scholars should write or phone: Robert D. Shadow or Gabriela Urunuela, Departamento de Antropologia, Universidad de las Américas-Puebla, A.P. 100, Santa Catarina Mártir, 72820 Puebla, Mexico; Tel: (22) 47-00-00 Ext. 194."

Items of interest

1. Leonardo Lopez Lujan (Museo del Templo Mayor) states that "En enero de 1990 inician por primera occasion los cursos de la Maestria en Arqueologia Mexica, en la Escuela Nacional de Antropologia e Historia/INAH. Esta maestria tiene una duracion de 2 anos. Es coordinada por Eduardo Matos Moctezuma."

2. Federico Nagel sent in two notes that are of interest to newsletter subscribers. The first concerns a book; the second describes the work of the Seminario de Cultura Nahuatl: a) Ascencion Hernandez de Leon-Portilla, Tepuztlahcuilolli, impresos en nahuatl, Mexico, UNAM, 1988. (Instituto de Investigaciones Filologicas and Instituto de Investigaciones Historicas), v.1 xxii + 282 p., 40 b&w pl., Index and bibliography; v.2, 444p., Index. "Books about books have always been important for any scholar as an aid for his or her research.

This one has several additional features. In volume 2 of Tepuztlahcuilolli Printed Matter in Nahuatlone finds an ample bibliography of 2961 entries from the time of the Spanish conquest through 1980. But the important point is that most of the entries have a comment that can run from a line to almost two pages. These comments are useful to get a better idea of the material in the publication which may not be clear from the title alone. "That volume alone is an important source book for most scholars of Nahuatl, but Ascencion complements it with a study of the history, philology, and linguistics of the same material. I won't try to give a complete picture of the content of the first volume in this short note but one finds four ample chapters set in chronological order: sixteenth century, seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, nineteenth century, and twentieth century.

Among the many subtitles are: 'The Franciscans, the Imperial School of Santa Cruz, and the Participation of the Nahuatl man', 'Two Peculiar Philologists of the End of the Nineteenth Century' (Agustin Hunt Cortes and Agustin de la Rosa), and 'Modern Nahuatl Literature.' These titles give some idea of the ample coverage of this volume. "As a closing remark, I found the book very easy and entertaining reading in spite of the enormous amount of information and the arid subject matter, a tribute to Ascencion's style." b) "The Seminario de Cultura Nahuatl has continued to be active in spite of the absence of Miguel Leon-Portilla, Mexico's ambassador to UNESCO. It is now undertaking a new project. Through the UNAM and UNESCO, a few of us are working in the AGN (Archivo General de la Nacion) trying to locate more documents in Indian languages especially Nahuatl. "There was a previous study by Cayetano Reyes G., et. al., of indigenous language documents of the AGN. Two volumes have been published and a third is ready for publication, Documentos mexicanos, cacchiaueles, mayas, matlatzincas, mixtecos, y nahuas, Mexico, AGN, v.1 and v.2, 1982 (Serie: Guias y Catalogos No.72). Below are the number of entries in each branch.

We started working with the branch of INDIOS and will probably continue with TIERRAS which was left incomplete in Cayetano's volumes; he reported Nahua documents only up to volume 55. We will also include pictographic material that has prehispanic traits which can be consulted in the 14 volumes of Catalogo de Ilustraciones. Mexico, AGN, 1979-84.

There is some similarity between our work and that of the Cayetano's team, but we are reporting more information on each document and its context. The three of us who are working on the project are: Pilar Maynez, linguist; Librado Silva, Nahuat speaker; and Federico Nagel, historian."

3. Xavier Noguez (El Colegio de Mexico) advises us that "En el mes de noviembre de 1989 un grupo de investigadores y estudiantes de diversas instituciones se reunieron en el Museo del Templo Mayor de la Ciudad de Mexico, con el objeto de crear el TALLER DEL TEMPLO MAYOR. El objectivo principal de este taller es el estudio, discusion, y publicacion de trabajos relacionados con la cultura nahuatl prehispanica y colonial temprana. Para 1990 se tienen tambien planeadas conferencias, a nivel de especialistas y publico en general, sobre diversos temas de arqueologia y etnohistoria. Los principales patrocinadores de estas actividades son los doctores Eduardo Matos Moctezuma, Alfredo Lopez Austin, Teresa Rojas Rabiela, y Johanna Broda. Mayores informes con el doctor Eduardo Matos Moctezuma, Museo del Templo Mayor, Calle De Guatemala, Colonia Centro 06060 MEXICO D.F. 4. Jane Rosenthal is "still collecting words for 'dog' in American Indian languages, but I am now also interested in words for 'cat,' especially those which seem to be formed on the misto/michi prototype.

Calls for assistance

1. Susan Schroeder (Loyola University) indicates that she is "interested in research, essays, or articles relating to Nahua women of the colonial period. If you know of such materials, please contact Robert Haskett or Stephanie Wood, Department of History, University of Oregon, Eugene, OR 97403 or Susan Schroeder, History, Loyola University, 820 N. Michigan Avenue, Chicago, IL 60611."

2. John F. Schwaller (Florida Atlantic University) recently received a grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities to compile a catalogue of Nahuatl manuscripts in US repositories. He has completed the: Newberry Library, Tulane U., Bancroft Lib., Lilly Lib., John Carter Brown Lib., Lib. of Congress, New York Public, U.T. and Hispanic Society. He is scheduled to study: UCLA, Huntington Lib., Gilcrease Institute, SMU-DeGolyer, UT-San Antonio, and the Univ. of Michigan. He would appreciate any information on manuscripts held at repositories other than those listed above.

ETHNOHISTORY OF COLONIAL NEW SPAIN. After completing a manuscript and several related studies concerning the ethnohistory of Cuernavaca's colonial indigenous ruling elite, I have begun an investigation of the Taxco mining complex concentrating especially on involuntary Indian mine labor. I have also been studying priest-Indian parishioner relations in the Cuernavaca and Taxco regions. Both of these newer studies rely on a variety of Nahuatl records as core sources of information. Both attempt to explore the issues from an Indian perspective and over the entire colonial period.

ETHNOHISTORY, RELIGION. My current research is concerned with Mexica-Tenochca conceptions of time. I'm finishing the first volume of a project (working title: "Pipiltin/Mecehualtin: A Study of Mexica-Tenochca Concepts of Time, Sacrifice, and Kingship") in which models for time, sacrifice, and kingship are built up and then applied to the period of history roughly spanning between Mocteuhczoma Ilhuicamina and Mocteuhczoma Xocoyotzin. I am also concerned, in this study, with an interpretational method that can adequately deal with a textual situation in which the bulk of the resources are effected by the conditions of conquest and colonialism.
