"In Conquered Conquistadors, Florine Asselbergs reveals that a large pictorial map,
the Lienzo de Quauhquechollan, long thought to represent a series of battles in central
Mexico, was actually painted in the 1530s by Quauhquecholteca warriors to document
their invasion of Guatemala alongside the Spanish and to proclaim themselves as conquistadors.
This painting is the oldest known map of Guatemala and a rare document of the experiences
of indigenous conquistadors." "Conquered Conquistadors, published in a European edition
in 2004, overturned conventional views of the European conquest of indigenous cultures.
American historians and anthropologists will relish this new edition and Asselbergs's
astute analysis, which includes context, interpretation, and comparison with other
pictographic accounts of the "Spanish" conquest. This heavily illustrated edition
includes an insert reproduction of the Lienzo de Quauhquechollan."--Jacket
