A fertile and protected corner San Cristóbal de La Laguna fue fundada tras la conquista de la isla de Tenerife por la Corona de Castilla a finales del siglo XV. En aquel momento, las Islas Canarias tenían gran valor estratégico, por su conexión con los nuevos territorios que los europeos estaban conquistando en África y en América. La ciudad se situó junto a la laguna que le da nombre, hoy desaparecida y lejos de la costa, para evitar los ataques de los piratas. Además, las tierras del lugar, de origen volcánico, son muy fértiles para el cultivo de cereales y pasto para el ganado. “¡Buen sitio!“ LAGUNA FANTASMA San Cristóbal de La Laguna was founded after the CON NUMEROS conquest of Tenerife by Castile, at the end of the Gost lagoon 15th Century.

  • Mexico and Spain on the Eve of Encounter
    4 Mexico and Spain on the Eve of Encounter In comparative history, the challenge is to identify significant factors and the ways in which they are related to observed outcomes. A willingness to draw on historical data from both sides of the Atlantic Ocean will be essen- tial in meeting this challenge. — Walter Scheidel (2016)1 uring the decade before Spain’s 1492 dynastic merger and launching of Dtrans- Atlantic expeditions, both the Aztec Triple Alliance and the joint kingdoms of Castile and Aragón were expanding their domains through con- quest. During the 1480s, the Aztec Empire gained its farthest flung province in the Soconusco region, located over 500 miles (800 km) from the Basin of Mexico near the current border between Mexico and Guatemala. It was brought into the imperial domain of the Triple Alliance by the Great Speaker Ahuitzotl, who ruled from Tenochtitlan, and his younger ally and son- in- law Nezahualpilli, of Texcoco. At the same time in Spain, the allied Catholic Monarchs Isabela of Castile and Ferdinand of Aragón were busy with military campaigns against the southern emirate of Granada, situated nearly the same distance from the Castilian heartland as was the Soconusco from the Aztec heartland. The unification of the kingdoms ruled by Isabela and Ferdinand was in some sense akin to the reunifi- cation of Hispania Ulterior and Hispania Citerior of the early Roman period.2 The conquest states of Aztec period Mexico and early modern Spain were the product of myriad, layered cultural and historical processes and exchanges. Both were, of course, ignorant of one another, but the preceding millennia of societal developments in Mesoamerica and Iberia set the stage for their momentous en- counter of the sixteenth century.

Alvarez de Castro, 38 1 » í 7 ^ .^ ¿^ Lo canario, lo guanche y lo prehispánico SEBASTIAN JIMÉNEZ SÁNCHEZ Académico Correspondiente de la Real de la Historia Desde hace tiempo se viene dando impropiamente el nombre de guanches a los habitantes primitivos de las Islas Canarias, en su épo­ ca prehispánica, y con él a todo el exponente de su cultura milenaria, material y espiritual. Porque estimamos necesario aclarar el uso in­ correcto del nombre guanche, empleado por algunos escritores e in­ vestigadores, escribimos estas líneas para más ahondar en el tema y dar luces sobre el mismo. La palabra' guanche, ya considerada como nombre sustantivo o como nombre adjetivo, tiene especialísima significación, limitada sólo a los habitantes y a la cultura de la isla de Tenerife en su período preüispánico, aunque erróneamente literatos y ciertos investigadores no bien formados en los problemas canarios, especialmente extran­ jeros, hayan querido encontrar en la voz y grafía guanche el nom­ bre genérico que conviene y agrupa a los primitivos habitantes del archipiélago canario. El pretender emplear la palabra guanche en tal sentido está en pugna con el rigorismo histórico y con el proceso racial de las Islas, como fruto de las oleadas y de los cruces de remotos pueblos invasores.

  • In the Canary Islands: a Prospective Analysis of the Concept of Tricontinentality
    The “African being” in the Canary Islands: a prospective analysis of the concept of Tricontinentality José Otero Universidad de La Laguna 2017 1. Introduction Are the Canary Islands considered part of Africa? Instead of answering directly this question, my intervention today - which is a summary of my PhD dissertation- will go over the different responses to that question by local intellectual elites since the conquer and colonization of the Canary Islands. There are certain connections between Africa and the archipelago and I would like to present them from three different perspectives: 1) Understanding the indigenous inhabitant of the Canary Islands as an “African being”. 2) Reconstructing the significance of the Canary Islands in the Atlantic slave trade and its effects on some local artists in the first decades of the twentieth century. 3) Restructuring the interpretation of some Africanity in the cultural and political fields shortly before the end of Franco’s dictatorial regime. 2. The guanches and Africa: the repetition of denial The Canary Islands were inhabited by indigenous who came from North Africa in different immigrant waves –at the earliest– around the IX century B.C. (Farrujía, 2017). The conquest of the Islands by the Crown of Castile was a complex phenomenon and took place during the entire XV century. Knowledge of indigenous cultures has undoubtedly been the main theme of any historical and anthropological reflection made from the archipelago and even today, the circumstances around the guanches provokes discussions and lack of consensus across the social spectrum, not just among academic disciplines but in popular culture too.
