DESCRIPTION:Reconstructing a nineteenth-century German colony in Veracruz: 
 Historical and archaeological approaches When Mexico achieved independence
  from Spain in 1821\, its leaders eagerly opened its borders to North Amer
 ican and European emigrants and entrepreneurs in an effort to jump-start i
 ts national economy and "whiten" its populace. Among these early arrivals 
 was Carl Christian Sartorius\, a young German radical who had been exiled 
 from his native Hesse and who sought to realize his political ideals in a 
 German agricultural colony among the fertile hills and valleys of central 
 Veracruz. His enterprise ultimately became known as the Hacienda El Mirado
 r\, one of the most capital-intensive sugar cane and coffee estates in nin
 eteenth-century Mexico.&nbsp\;&nbsp\; This dissertation project employs ar
 chaeological methods to reconstruct the socioeconomic relationships betwee
 n the German settlers and neighboring indigenous villages\, on whose knowl
 edge and labor the settlers depended for success. It is explained how the 
 artifacts commonly recovered by archaeologists reveals the agency of peopl
 es often omitted from the historical record\, and how implementing these m
 ethods elucidates El Mirador as a case study in the local effects of the e
 xpansion of global capital in post-colonial situations.
