Summary[edit]

Title
Español: Este Mapa [Nuevo Santander Mexico]
Description
English: As noted by its inscription, this manuscript map depicts the topography, missions,and presidios north and south of the Rio Grande in the Spanish province of Nuevo Santander–an area in present south Texas and the northern Mexican state of Tamaulipas. North of the Rio Grande del Norte, sites shown include "Mision [sic.] de S.Antonio" and "Presidio del Espiritu Santo" and "Bahia del Espiritu Santo" near Goliad. The cartographer Haro, a Franciscan, may have accompanied an earlier Spanish expedition as scribe. The decorative border, consisting of red, blue, gold, and pink acanthus leaves between gold frames, recalls Spanish colonial church decoration and illuminated manuscripts. This map reveals the presence of the Christian religion in portions of the region, which was still dominated by many tribes who practiced animistic religion.
