Abstract

The study of any region is imbued with the need
to investigate its historical background. The
north of México and the south of the United
States make up the area that Tomás Martínez Saldaña
and collaborators have set out to describe, analyze
and research, to show how historical events have
transformed the region since the Conquest and until
today. In a journey through cities and towns whose
origin date from the Colonial period, in the territories
where the current states of México, Querétaro,
Aguascalientes, Guanajuato, Jalisco San Luis Potosí,
Zacatecas, Durango, Chihuahua, and the US territory
of Santa Fe in New Mexico, are found, the Camino
Real de Tierra Adentro becomes an active participant
and important in the construction of modern México.
It was a commercial route that united Mexico City
with Santa Fe, so that its extension corresponds to the
limit of Mesoamerica; the territory that was occupied
by arid American cultures along some two thousand
five hundred kilometers, between the years of 1590
and 1850.
