secularization of the missions. | | | Repository: | University of Arizona Libraries, Special Collections | | | Subjects: | Indians of Mexico -- Mexico -- Sonora (State) -- History -- 18th century. | Missionaries -- Mexico -- Sonora (State) | Missions -- Mexico -- Sonora (State) -- History -- 18th century. | Piman Indians -- Missions -- History -- 18th century. | | | Similar Items: | Find Similar Guides |
