Summary
The Camino Real de Tierra Adentro, spanning 2650 km from Mexico City to Santa Fe, USA, was historically pivotal for silver transportation, particularly between Mexico City and Zacatecas. This study highlights its significance as a critical trade route connecting colonial Mexico with the northern territories of New Mexico, facilitating economic and cultural exchanges across two nations. The research approach likely involved historical analysis of archival records, cartographic data, and archaeological evidence to reconstruct the route's development and impact. By focusing on this transnational corridor, the study contributes to understanding the complex interplay between colonial economies and infrastructure in North America.
