make sure you read pgs 85-90 from your big handout tonight to review the final steps of the Spanish conquest of the aztecs and the institution of encomienda! Its a very important factor (both economically and socially) in mexico to this day, so make sure you come in with questions.
Also, for a little fun, I've provided the following pictures! This one the right is a mexican map of Tenochtitlan at the time of conquest.
I will give you extra credit on the upcoming test if you can figure out what this picture below is of, and write a paragraph telling me why you think it is what you think it is! (hows that for good english!)
