Resumen
El Camino Real de Tierra Adentro fue la vía de comunicación más importante del septentrión novohispano durante los siglos XVI al XVIII. Por él transitaron indígenas, españoles y africanos, mercancías e ideas que permitieron el poblamiento de ciudades, villas, reales de minas, presidios, poblados misionales, estancias agrícolas y ganaderas, pero ante todo la formación de la nueva cultura mestiza que caracteriza al norte. En este trabajo se estudian los orígenes y los cambios de ruta que tuvo el Camino Real de Tierra Adentro a medida que se prolongó hacia el norte, debido tanto al auge minero como a la resistencia de los indios a la expansión española y las dificultades que los viajeros tuvieron para transportarse a causa de sus accidentes geográficos. Para ello se recurrió a fuentes documentales de diferentes repositorios, a descripciones de personajes de la época y a investigaciones de historiadores actuales sobre la misma temática.
Palabras clave: camino, septentrión, plata, asentamientos, resistencia indígena.
Abstract
Camino Real de Tierra Adentro (Royal Road of the Interior Lands) was the most important road of communication during the sixteenth to eighteenth centuries in the north of New Spain. It was transited by indigenous, Spanish and African people, goods and ideas that allowed the settlement of cities, towns, mining camps, jails, missionary settlements, agricultural and cattle ranches, but first of all, the formation of the new hybrid culture that characterizes north. This article examines the origins and route changes that had the Camino Real de Tierra Adentro as continued north, both due to the mining boom as the Indian resistance to Spanish expansion and the difficulties that travellers had to transport because of its geographical features. This article based on documentary sources from different repositories, resorted to character descriptions of the time and current historians research on the same topic.
Keywords: Road, north, silver, settlements, indigenous resistance.
