“…60 A similar pattern emerged in Yanhuitlán, Oaxaca, where urban nucleation around the colossal Dominican monastery still reflected a pre-Hispanic pattern of settlement more than a European one. 61 Even in areas where sub-units relocated wholesale to a new urban nucleus, the constituent cellular calpoltin continued as distinct subunits that retained their semi-autonomy. With ruling nobles ensconced in the new ceremonial center around the doctrina monastery, the cellular organization of the indigenous polity persisted.…”

Around the year 1550, an indigenous tlacuilo (painter-scribe-historian) in Tepechpan, a small altepetl north of Mexico City, narrated the tumultuous events through which he had lived. In Figure 1, we see an excerpt of this tlacuilo's contribution to the town's annals, the Tira de Tepechpan, which depicts a sequence of events from 1545 to 1549. On the left, beneath the glyph for the year 1545, the tlacuilo paints a dangling corpse, its arms crossed and eyes shut, with blood spurting from the nose and mouth. Here the tlacuilo is telling us of the 1545 hueycocolixtli, the “great sickness” that killed at least a third of the population, according to conservative estimates. Among the victims was Tepechpan's ruler, the crowned figure wrapped in funeral cloth above the year glyph.

El ensayo discute la peculiar representación estilística e iconográfica de la imagen de Cristo en una pintura y un relieve de la segunda mitad del siglo XVI, pertenecientes al patrimonio artístico y religioso de Santo Domingo Yanhuitlán, un pueblo de la Mixteca oaxaqueña, México. El análisis estilístico e iconográfico junto a unos relevantes datos históricos apuntan a la existencia de una clara reflexión en torno a la naturaleza y estatus de la imagen sagrada en el debate religioso postreformista y el contexto de fruición local.
