INDEX 



This index is by no means complete; it merely covers the main text and Appendix B in somewhat greater detail 

 than does the table of contents. As a rule, it does not include material which appears in the tables. It is assumed, 

 for example, that anyone who is particularly interested in the Mexican conquests will make direct use of the tables 

 of Appendix B. 



Appendix A does not lend itself to indexing, unless the names of all pueblos (tables 14, 15) and encomenderos 

 (table 14) be included. Anyone interested in this rather special aspect of the study will find the pueblos in alpha- 

 betical order in table 14 ; in table 15, order is numerical, to agree with the entries on map 2. 



An index to the genera of the herbarium specimens appears (pp. 341-346) at the end of Appendix C. Items of 

 general interest in that Appendix and in Appendix D are referred to in the text, either of this volume or of Part 2, 

 which is not yet published. Accordingly, detailed indexing of these two appendices would be essentially a duplication.
