During the sixteenth century, the Americas underwent a process of European colonization without precedent. In this process, new eclessiastical, domestic, and civic buildings were created to fullfill colonial needs. European and indigenous patrons, architects, artists, masons, and workers came together to create the new spaces of colonial society. They adapted indigenous, Medieval, and Renaissance models and in this way reshaped the cities and landscape of the Americas. This panel seeks to examine how indigenous people and Europeans negotiated their diverging interests and created a sense of place in new colonial society.
