Who were the men who attempted to conquer the Chontalpa region? Who ultimately got the credit for doing so? Why do so many places in Tabasco have Nahua names? What was a Cabildo, an Alcalde and an Alguacil? How did The Spanish Crown attempt to control the elites in Nueva Espana? Was Rodrigo Rangel the right man to send on campaign through the Chontalpa? And how did the Cimantecos fight off the Spanish for so long? All these questions and more as we go from Macro to Micro view on the pacification of Tabasco and dive into the naming of its many communities and settlements.
