description Today, San José Paxtepec refers to a small community in the Sierra de Chiconquiaco, near the capital of the State of Veracruz, Mexico. It does, however, have a church erected by the Franciscan Order in the first years after their arrival in New Spain. Historical archeology has allowed the study of this construction, simple in its structure, important in terms of theindigenous representation, for example, the east-west orientation, the use of indigenous elements in the carving of the main door, in the square with a small fence that forms, together with its atrial cross, the old "Teaching Courtyard". This construction draws attention because it does not have military characteristics as do the churches and convents of the altiplano, for example, Huexotzingo, in the State of Puebla; It represents, however, an "advanced" point in the spiritual conquest of the Sierra de Chiconquiaco, which will only stop with other constructions, some superb such as Santa María de la Asunción Misantla.

Arqueologia Histórica Paxtepec; Franciscanos; Século XVI evangelismo Today, San José Paxtepec refers to a small community in the Sierra de Chiconquiaco, near the capital of the State of Veracruz, Mexico. It does, however, have a church erected by the Franciscan Order in the first years after their arrival in New Spain. Historical archeology has allowed the study of this construction, simple in its structure, important in terms of theindigenous representation, for example, the east-west orientation, the use of indigenous elements in the carving of the main door, in the square with a small fence that forms, together with its atrial cross, the old "Teaching Courtyard". This construction draws attention because it does not have military characteristics as do the churches and convents of the altiplano, for example, Huexotzingo, in the State of Puebla; It represents, however, an "advanced" point in the spiritual conquest of the Sierra de Chiconquiaco, which will only stop with other constructions, some superb such as Santa María de la Asunción Misantla. San José Paxtepec remite hoy en día a una pequeña comunidad en la Sierra de Chiconquiaco, próxima a la capital del Estado de Veracruz, México. Posee, sin embargo, una iglesia erigida por la Orden Franciscana en los primeros años posteriores a la llegada de éstos a la Nueva España. La arqueología histórica ha permitido abordar el estudio de esta construcción, sencilla en su estructura, importante en cuanto a la representación indígena, por ejemplo, la orientación oriente-poniente, el empleo de elementos indígenas en el labrado de la puerta principal, en la plaza con una pequeña barda que conforma junto con su cruz atrial, el antiguo “Patio de enseñanza”. Llama la atención esta construcción pues no posee características militares como lo tienen las iglesias y conventos del altiplano, por ejemplo, Huexotzingo, en el Estado de Puebla; representa, no obstante, un punto “adelantado” en la conquista espiritual de la Sierra de Chiconquiaco, que no se detendrá sino con otras construcciones, algunas soberbias como la de Santa María de la Asunción Misantla. Hoje, San José Paxtepec refere-se a uma pequena comunidade na Serra de Chiconquiaco, perto da capital do estado de Veracruz, no México. Tem, no entanto, uma igreja erguida pela Ordem Franciscana nos primeiros anos após sua chegada à Nova Espanha. A arqueologia histórica permitiu o estudo desta construção, simples na sua estrutura, importante ao nível darepresentação indígena, por exemplo, a orientação nascente-poente, a utilização de elementos indígenas na talha da porta principal, na praça com uma pequena cerca que forma, juntamente com a sua cruz atrial, o antigo “Pátio do Ensino”. Esta construção chama a atenção por não ter características militares como as igrejas e conventos do altiplano, por exemplo, Huexotzingo, no Estado de Puebla; Representa, no entanto, um ponto "avançado" na conquista espiritual da Serra de Chiconquiaco, que só se deterá com outras construções, algumas soberbas como Santa María de la Asunción Misantla.
