| Descripción: | The traditional vision that we have in Mexico about the conquest and establishment of New Spain is reductionist and grandiloquent. The research carried out in the last two decades has allowed a much more detailed knowledge of the past which, hand in hand with transdisciplinarity, has provided research with an enormous wealth of tools for understanding the past. This article aims to address the issue of the creation of the first Mexico City by adapting the pre-Hispanic city that preceded it to approach the mentality of the Castilian conquerors and Hernán Cortés himself through the analysis of sources, analysis urban and historiographic work to outline the image of conquerors who were pragmatic and who modified and built paleohispanic Mexico City as best they could to defend themselves against enemies, imaginary or real, who could be Mexica, but also European. |
