Los sueños y los días

Para ello rastrea evidencias de un esfuerzo consciente por la conservación de la memoria en los pueblos prehispánicos y su lugar en esas sociedades.

Il est accompagné de deux types de textes écrits en espagnol, l'un provenant probablement d'un scribe autochtone, l'autre d'un fonctionnaire espagnol. Il s'agit d'un témoignage éclairant de la société née de la Conquête et de la misère dont les impôts locaux des autochtones furent progressivement captés par les Espagnols.
