New Mexico in the 18th Century by Alex Martinez

2025-02-04 17:20:31 UTC

The Indigenous and Spanish people came to peace after the Pueblo Revolt and the Spanish decided to respect the pueblos more now and not force their religion down the others throats

Answer

2025-02-04 17:21:11 UTC

these 2 tribes would not have had their major combat advantage over the others, which were horses.

Answer

2025-02-04 17:21:53 UTC

I would probably be a chill farmer, I'm not one for conflict and it would be a nice quiet life.

2025-02-04 17:21:54 UTC

If I lived in colonial NM I would make a living off of Farming and hunting.

2025-02-04 17:22:42 UTC

These two tribes would not have had the immense advantage against others if they had no horses

2025-02-04 17:23:26 UTC

Trade was more regional, and was very dependent on the area. nowadays with shipping and connections, the economy is more connected to all around the world.

2025-02-04 17:24:16 UTC

Religious tolerance was adopted by the spanish.

Answer

2025-02-04 17:25:23 UTC

Neither tribe would have their main advantage

2025-02-04 17:25:36 UTC

Trade was regional to the colony. Trade now and days is seen as easier and broader to more indviduals.

2025-02-04 17:26:41 UTC

i would be dead because i would get killed by the aggressive tribe people because i have little to no fight or flight response

Answer

2025-02-04 17:27:00 UTC

I would probably just work on my parents farm and avoid conflict.

2025-02-04 17:27:59 UTC

Although trading was much more centered specifically around the single state, instead of coming from all around the world, trade is still trade. It still had the same workings and such, giving away goods and acquiring new goods.

2025-02-04 17:28:10 UTC

the two tribes wouldn't have much of an avantinge

Answer

2025-02-04 17:28:45 UTC

Trade was more limited back then because it was harder to get the goods to travel. It is now easier because there are ways to ship everything.

2025-02-04 17:29:09 UTC

They'd be different without horses because that's their main advantage against others.

2025-02-04 17:29:50 UTC

the two tribes wouldnt have their main advantage

2025-02-04 17:30:02 UTC

Because the Spanish brought horses to NM, the Utes and Comanches had a huge advantage against the other tribes in the region. If they hadn't, then they might not have been as imposing as they were.

2025-02-04 17:30:28 UTC

trade depended on the region and was usually very close together and compared to today, trade is much more wide spreed and available

2025-02-04 17:30:49 UTC

i would just enjoy life being a farmer and avoid any conflict

2025-02-04 17:31:09 UTC

If I lived in colonial NM I'd either be a successful farmer and live a long happy life or I'd suffer in the middle of nowhere with no resources and die.

2025-02-04 17:31:13 UTC

It improved greatly because the Spanish allowed the Indigenous people to live on their lands in peace. They also stopped trying to force the Spanish religion on them, and mostly, they just left them alone.

2025-02-04 17:31:25 UTC

religious tolerance 💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥

Answer

2025-02-04 17:31:41 UTC

Colonists gave the indigenous people more cultural and religious freedom.

I would make my living on farming and hunting :D

2025-02-04 17:31:54 UTC

2025-02-04 17:31:56 UTC

Trade back then was for more religious reasons.

2025-02-04 17:32:23 UTC

I would likely be dead. Considering there were raids and it was difficult to farm and get food in general, I likely wouldn't last that long.

2025-02-04 17:32:25 UTC

the trading in new mexico probably only had foods and stuff from new mexico while now it is more worldwide so you can get gods from japan or mexico faster

2025-02-04 17:33:06 UTC

It improved because they found peace after all the violence. :D

the relations between the 2 after the pueblo revolt after the spanish decided to not to force the there religion on the pueblo people

2025-02-04 17:33:52 UTC

2025-02-05 18:35:32 UTC

Answer

2025-02-05 18:35:33 UTC

They probaly wouldnt have nearly as much advantage at all if they did not have horses.

2025-02-05 18:35:44 UTC

The 2 tribes would not have advantages that were given to them by horses

2025-02-05 18:36:21 UTC

They would probably have less of an advantage without horses.

Answer

2025-02-05 18:36:23 UTC

The two tribes would've had less of an advantage over the people they were attacking, because they would have to use their own stamina, not be as fast, and no longer have the literal high ground.

Answer

2025-02-05 18:36:30 UTC

I would probally just have a farm and irrigate my land.

2025-02-05 18:36:32 UTC

The two tribes would not really have an advantage and things would go slower.

Answer

2025-02-05 18:36:40 UTC

The two tribes would have less of an advantage fighting. Without horses they would have to rely on stamina, and weapons.

2025-02-05 18:36:55 UTC

I would make a living by farming and cropping

2025-02-05 18:37:06 UTC

I would probably be a farmer or something similar since that seemed to be one of the main ways people lived back then.

I would probably do something dumb and get killed by the hostile tribes. Also i would have no idea how to farm.

Answer

2025-02-05 18:37:35 UTC

Both of the tribes used their horses to gain an advantage in combat, and if they didn't have their horses they would lose this advantage.

Answer

2025-02-05 18:38:04 UTC

The Comanches and Utes would have to continue to do their combat and fighting purely on foot and without the aide of horses they would be able to travel as fast. (Izzi)

2025-02-05 18:38:05 UTC

I would probably be a miner since I hate farming and yard work stuff. I would maybe be a cowboy too because it sounds bad ass. Id never be a farmer.

Trading back then was really for the area and more regional, now and days we have more advanced technology to go more worldwide.

Answer

2025-02-05 18:38:29 UTC

Both of these tribes would not be able to fight as well or as hard if they were not equipped with horses because they would need to walk/run as they were fighting, they also would not have a higher advantage over who they were fighting.

Response (Jacob Padilla)

2025-02-05 18:38:33 UTC

If the Spanish had not brought horses to America each of these pueblos would be a lot slower. Everything would have to be on foot making raids and fighting battles a lot harder and slower.

Answer

2025-02-05 18:38:42 UTC

If these tribes didn't bring horses to America, they wouldn't be able to raid towns as easily as they did.

(Lila)

Answer

2025-02-05 18:38:53 UTC

If they didn´t bring horses to America, it would have been harder, or almost impossible for them to raid the towns successfully.

Answer

2025-02-05 18:39:03 UTC

It improved because after the revolt there was more religous tolerance for the indigenous people.

Natanya Response to Question 1

2025-02-05 18:39:04 UTC

If the Spanish had not brought horses, raids would be much harder. The tribes would be much slower on foot, and would probably be caught.

2025-02-05 18:39:13 UTC

Trade happened within certain regions, but now it's more global.

Answer

2025-02-05 18:39:28 UTC

I would like to be a hunter or trapper, maybe it would be a harder life but I wouldn't mind the adventure

2025-02-05 18:39:35 UTC

You would trade because people didnt really have money so they would trade things they did have

Response (Jacob Padilla)

2025-02-05 18:39:40 UTC

If I was born in colonial NM I would choose be a cowboy. It would be a lovely adventure even in the hard times and I would get to say that I was cowboy.

2025-02-05 18:39:52 UTC

Trades back then were most likely more local and nearby. As trades today are more worldwide.

2025-02-05 18:39:54 UTC

Trade was reliant on good terrain and connections to others available for trade. Now we have online shopping and sites like ebay where we can buy and sell and ship stuff all over the world.

Answer

2025-02-05 18:39:55 UTC

The Comanches and the Utes would not have had the advantage of horses that allowed them to move faster and engage in mounted combat giving them a huge leg up when it came to mobility and military strength.

I would want to be a seamstress or nun. They jobs would be somewhat easy and i wouldn't have to do extreme amounts of labor aside from farming for my own food and maybe some hunting. (Izzi)

2025-02-05 18:40:20 UTC

I wouldn't want to be a farmer, or nun, or anything else so I'd probably die eventually or get killed by the pueblo people

2025-02-05 18:40:31 UTC

The two tribes most likely would be less of a threat because they wouldn't have as much of an advantage without horses.

answer

2025-02-05 18:40:37 UTC

if i lived in colonial nm i would make a living by either working in fabrics, be a cowgirl or a farmer. since i do know how to sew, and farmer because it would be the most resourceful, cowgirl is the most unlikely one but i just think it would be cool -Molly

2025-02-05 18:40:55 UTC

After the Pueblo Revolt the Spanish were a little bit less controlling.

Answer

2025-02-05 18:41:46 UTC

Trading was a whole lot more regional, sure they had trade routes but they had nothing close to the international shipping we have today

2025-02-05 18:42:12 UTC

Trade had a smaller range of things that could actually be traded and the people that it could be traded to it also probably took longer if you wanted to get a traded item further. It is different from today because now we can get items globally and can trade more things.

2025-02-05 18:42:16 UTC

The relation improved because after the Pueblo Revolt, there was more cultural mixing and religious tolerance.

Answer

2025-02-05 18:42:29 UTC

The trading they had back then was mainly because of religion, but now it is more logically for survival and a little bit for pleasure.

Natanya Response to Question 3

The trade in the New Mexico colony was focused on the region of the state. Now our modern trade is worldwide.

answer

2025-02-05 18:43:32 UTC

they improved because the spanish were not trying to change and take control of the indigenous people.

2025-02-05 18:43:34 UTC

They improoved because they started making peace with eachother

2025-02-05 18:44:14 UTC

Trade was localized and highly dependent on seasons, weather, and terrain and now none of that is a great hindrances to our shopping. In a way both of our trading systems are communal and relatively local (Izzi)

Response (Jacob Padilla)

2025-02-05 18:44:21 UTC

Answer

2025-02-05 18:45:02 UTC

Trade would differ greatly as the only way to transport goods would be by horse which is quite slow and they wouldn't have near the kind of a selection of goods as they have now. This is assuming that they didn't have a rive near by because if they did it would all be transported by barge along the river

Natanya Response to Question 4

2025-02-05 18:46:21 UTC

Relations changed between Spanish and Indigenous people because after the Pueblo Revolt, the Spanish were more open to the religion and beliefs of the Native Peoples.

There are 2 options for me, 1. Hide as a farm animal and be really smart and reliable (for a farm animal) so they wouldn't eat me or 2.Be a religious nun and just live a peaceful life. Being a farm animal sounds cool but if I have to be realstic then Iĺl be a nun.

The 2 tributes wouldn't have a huge advantage because of the certain circumstances at play.

Answer

2025-02-05 18:47:38 UTC

Trade in colonial New Mexico was often local and trade would occur between people of the same town/state. This is somewhat similar to trading today if you choose to shop locally. It is different because nowadays we have shipping and retail stores with things that are found all over the world.

Answer

2025-02-05 18:47:59 UTC

The spanish started marrying inter racially which made them become more compassionate towards their new found inlaws. Also the spanish started accepting other religions a bit more.

2025-02-05 18:48:55 UTC

Neither of the tribes would have their biggest advantages

2025-02-05 18:49:58 UTC

More religious tolerance

2025-02-05 18:50:01 UTC

trade is definitely easier now then it was then but trade is making things more expensive these days

Tay

2025-02-05 18:52:27 UTC

The tribes would most likely would have less of an advantage in battles.

Answer :3

2025-02-06 16:45:52 UTC

The Comanches and Utes used horses for travel and battle. If they had never gotten their hands on horses, they would not have received that advantage or have traveled so far.

2025-02-06 16:48:26 UTC

I would probably own a ranch with my fam, and I'd be nice and probably not enslave anyone.

2025-02-06 16:51:43 UTC

Trade was less universal. There was only trade between NM and Mexico, but now trade is replaced with the exchange of currency and has grown to reach all over the world.

2025-02-06 16:53:13 UTC

the relatins between both spanish and pueblo indigenous improved when the spanish finally learned to respect boundaries and not force anything upon the indigenous people.

2025-02-06 16:54:46 UTC

The spanish released their hold on indigenous cultures, allowing them to do whatever they want. Also there was a lot of ethnic and racial mixing of the spanish and indigenous people.

I would try to stay out of conflict and just farm.

Answer

2025-02-06 17:22:23 UTC

Back then trade was limited because it was hard to export goods. Now it is easier because there are better ways to export things.

2025-02-06 17:23:53 UTC

The Comanches and the Utes would not have as much of an advantage when fighting if the Spanish had not brought horses to America.

Their relations improved because there was more religious tolerance for the indigenous people.

2025-02-06 17:30:25 UTC

well like...you couldn ´ t really order anything online in colonial NM- so the trade is definitely changed by modern society, but it´s also still somewhat the same, humans have been using trade as a means of survival for a veeerrrry long time.

2025-02-06 17:31:58 UTC

it improved because the Spanish, for the most part, stopped trying to force their religion on the Indigenous people, so they lived in peace !

2025-02-09 02:05:00 UTC

it differs from today's ecomemony is not only were tools food and other things were different back then but everything was a lot cheaper making things back then a lot more expensive now then what it would be now.

2025-02-09 02:16:36 UTC

The Comanches and the Utes would be different because since the Spanish brought the horses it was easier for them to travel, it also made fighting wars for them easier.

Without horses these tribes would not be able to hunt large animals. They would not be able to travel long distances and they would be less of threat in war.

2025-02-10 01:36:56 UTC

If I lived in colonial NM the way that I would make my living would be by weaving baskets and clothes.

2025-02-10 01:38:07 UTC

The NM colony trade differs was they usually bartered for goods and today we get paid. But in some instances they did get copper coins which resembles how we trade today.

2025-02-10 01:41:12 UTC

Answer

Trade in the New Mexico colony involved exchanging livestock, textiles, and goods with Native Americans and other regions. Today, trade still plays a crucial role, but now includes technology and oil, reflecting modern needs. While the goods have changed, the importance of trade routes remains similar.

Answer

2025-02-19 18:06:27 UTC

Relations between the Spanish and Pueblo Indigenous peoples improved in the 1700s due to several factors. After the Pueblo Revolt of 1680, the Spanish recognized the need for a more cooperative approach. They allowed the Pueblos greater autonomy, respected their religious practices, and provided protection against other hostile tribes. This mutual respect and cooperation led to more stable and positive relations.

2025-03-03 16:30:02 UTC

The Comanches would have remained hunter gatherers rather than warriors and the Utes would have relied more on foot travel and trading rather than their horse-centric economy.

2025-03-03 16:31:42 UTC

I would be a farmer because farming would be a consistent way of living and providing for a family.

trade in the NM economy centered on livestock, textiles, and goods exchanged with native tribes and Mexico. It resembles todays economy in its resiliance on regional trade but differs with modern dependence

Relations improved because the spanish adopted a more tolerant approach to pueblo culture and religion

The Comanches and Utes would not have a great advantage over other tribes if they didn't have horses. Horses were a pretty distinctive trait of both of the tribes and so their power would've been a lot different.

offer my skills and knowledge about herbs to Native Tribes and hopefully be adopted by them. I'd just try to do farm chores and earn food and shelter to get by.

The only way you'd get goods and all that was if you could walk or get on a horse to get there. Even that was rare if you couldn't make it yourself. Today, no one really makes anything for themselves except for meals. We have cars so it's really easy to drive out into the main town and get stuff. And we can even get goods from places across the world. We can even have friends from across the world via phones. Very, very different.

After a few bloody revolts, the Spanish decided too leave the Indigenous people mostly alone (Religious tolerance)

I would want to become a farmer, so I can have a source of food. I also think it would be cool to be a carpenter... I would love to learn about building.

Trading nowadays, and trading a long time ago is pretty different. Due to not having as many resources then as we do now, it is much easier to trade nowadays. You can see that people still trade with the same resources as a while ago, but also use new resources, and it's much easier to trade due to vehicles.

It improved from the 1700's because the Spanish finally had peace with the indigenous people, which allowed them to be able to live on their land, and not cause any harm between the two groups.

It would have totally been different. Horses have a huge part in getting the people to and from places, and if the Spaniards had not brought horses to america, it would've made things much harder for the tribes.

They wouldnt know how to fight with horses and learn how to master horseback combat, leaving them vulnerable to enemy horseback riders.

Id prolly hunt game and learn about the cultures and become a hunter gatherer shaman and eat nothing but deer jerky and drink from streams
