Course Overview

Mesoamerica, stretching from central Mexico to parts of Central America, was home to several pre-Columbian societies before Spanish colonization. This class will explore the historical connection between certain New Mexican families and the Mēxihcahs, Tlaxcallāns, and Chichimecas. A short film will trace the history of these groups, and we will discuss which families show markers most closely associated with these ancient civilizations. Join us to explore the fascinating cultural and ancestral ties that link modern families to these significant pre-Columbian societies.
