From the New Mexico Magazine Vacation Guide.
http://www.ocf.berkeley.edu/~celina/history.html
HISTORY New Mexico Magazine Vacation Guide New Mexico is a timeless land of ancient cultural traditions and striking environmental diversity. For thousands of years, man has traveled through this Land of Enchantment leaving footprints to a rich and colorful past. Some of the earliest known inhabitants included the folsom Paleo-Indians who wandered into the area hunting animals that have been extinct for more than 10000 years. Indians farmed the fertile land along the Rio Grande, producing corn, beans and squash. By the end of the 13th century, the Anasazi had completely abandoned their high-walled cities in northwestern New Mexico and the rest of the Four Corners area and drifted south where, along with the farmers from the Rio Grande, they developed the sophisticated Pueblo communities. Shortly before the arrival of the Spanish, the Athapascan tribes entered the Southwest. Divided into two related groups, the Apache and the Navajo, the Athapascans established permanent villages only in the last 200 years. Explorer Vasquez de Coronado trekked through New Mexico in 1540. In search of treasure, and convinced that the adobe pueblos were the legendary Seven Cities of Cibola, Coronado had orders to conquer the Indians and claim their riches. Failing to find the fabled gold, however, he and his men returned to New Spain without any newly won wealth.

This article is part of a series Pre-Columbian Mexico Spanish conquest Colonial period ... e The history of Mexico , a country located in the southern portion of North America , covers a period of more than two millennia. First populated more than 2,000 years ago, the country produced complex indigenous civilizations before being conquered by the Spanish in the 16th Century. Since the Spanish Conquest , Mexico has fused its long-established native civilizations with European culture. Perhaps nothing better represents this hybrid background than Mexico's languages: the country is both the most populous Spanish -speaking country in the world and home to the largest number of Native American language speakers on the continent.

Public History
by Marsha Weisiger Welcome to the Public History Program at NMSU. Public historians move history beyond the classroom, using all the skills and methods of history to connect people to the past. Public historians work in museums, historical societies, national parks, historic preservation offices, archives, government agencies (such as the Department of State), consulting companies, and other places outside academic settings. Our Master of Arts with a concentration in public history is grounded in graduate level training in history, with additional skills in one or more applied fields. The 36-credit-hour program includes public history courses, traditional history courses, at least one internship, and the preparation of a journal article. All Public History Program students also receive strong preparation in the general skills of historical research, writing, and interpretation through a common core of graduate courses. The Department of History and the Department of Government offer a joint degree, in which students simultaneously earn an MA in History with a public history specialization and an MA in Public Administration.

History and Culture
M exico's historical attractions - from the ancient ruins of the Olmecs, Maya, and Aztec, to the train routes used by the brash and legendary Pancho Villa - rank second only to the beaches of Cancun - and Alcapulco as the prime reason people come. The reason for this is simple: the tale of Mexico's past, accompanied by an overwhelming amount of physical remains, is as romantic, blood-curling, dramatic, and complex as it gets.
Somewhere around 1000 BC, the first of Mexico's ancient civilizations, the Olmecs, established themselves in what are now the states of Veracruz and Tabasco. They worshipped a jaguar God, built cities, constructed massive stone head carvings, and spread throughout central and southern Mexico until their civilization mysteriously vanished around 400 BC. Though the Olmecs left behind relatively few artifacts, their influence on later cultures was profound. In their wake came the Teotihuacan, the Zapotecs and Mixtecs of Monte Alban, the Maya of Yucatan, the Toltecs, Aztecs, and dozens of smaller, citied groups. To balance the spiritual and earthly realms and appease their pantheons of gods, many of these civilizations practiced human sacrifice, a fact that often overshadows their great achievements in the realms of mathematics, astronomy, architecture, textile weaving, art, and pottery. The Maya, for example, were so advanced in mathematics and astronomy that their calendar was the world's most accurate until this century. They could also predict solar and lunar eclipses.

The Post Classic Period ( 900 - 1521 ) Part 1
Dale Hoyt Palfrey While data on early Mesoamerican cultures has been deduced primarily from archaeological evidence, historians have utilized the written records of later cultures to produce the final chapters of pre-hispanic Mexico. Having reached a cultural plateau, no significant intellectual or scientific growth was noted among societies of the Post-Classic period. Their tendency instead was to put acquired knowledge into practice. The era is marked by the shifting of political power from the priesthood to the warrior elite. In parallel, the practice of human sacrifices came to a crescendo to appease increasingly blood-thirsty gods. In addition, with the rise of these militaristic societies the object of armed conflict became more a matter of dominating subject states for the purpose of exacting tribute rather than for territorial gain. Toltecs
Teotihuacan had long served as a buffer between civilized central Mexico and the Chichimecas, barbaric nomads inhabiting arid lands to the north.

CAMPECHE HISTORY
Campeche is located on the southeast part of the Mexican Republic. It is bounded on the north and northeast by Yucatan, on the east by Quintana Roo and Belize, on the south by Guatemala, on the southwest by Tabasco. On the west and northwest side is the Gulf of Mexico. Campeche has an area of 56,114 sq. km. (21,665 sq. mi.) including 288 islands and has two kinds of climate: the humid warm and the sub-humid warm. The sub-humid warm climate has periods of rain in the summer and beginning of fall. The dry season is characterized by the convergence of warm winds from the east and the southwest. The humid warm climate is prevalent in the southwest part of the state. The City of Campeche, which is also a port in the Gulf of Mexico, is the capital of the state. It is located 196 km southeast of Merida by the federal highway 180, and 471 km northeast of Villahermosa by the federal highways 186, 261 and 180. The village of Can-Pech was believed to have been founded around the third century A.D. . On October 4, 1540, the Spanish founded the village of San Francisco de Campeche., under the leadership of Francisco de Montejo "El Mozo". During the 16 - 18 centuries, San Francisco de Campeche was converted and became a popular port of commercial trade on the Peninsula of Yucatan.
