      SPANBORD - the history and archaeology of the Spanish Borderlands
 
  For the purposes of this discussion list, we are defining the Spanish
borderlands as the following: Mexico - north of Zacatecas; United States -
California, the greater Southwest, and the Southeast (basically, the areas of
the U.S. which were once part of the Spanish Empire). The time period covered
is 1521-1900.
  SPANBORD is designed to facilitate communication between people interested
in such topics as the history of the area, acculturation, historical
archaeology of the Spanish Colonial period and the Mexican Republic era,
material culture studies, mission studies, military sites history and
archaeology, and other aspects of the borderlands. We also encourage
contributions by specialists and students in related fields such as
ethnohistory, architecture, art history, and maritime studies.
