The Laws of Burgos of 1512-1513: Royal Ordinances for the Good Government and Treatment of Indians

This is an English text of the Spanish laws designed for governing the Indians of the New World. It gives the student of American history a glimpse into the thinking of the medieval churchman and jurists who were attempting to create in New Spain a community based on Christian and Aristotelian teaching. This utopian vision stood in stark contrast to the barbarous reality of Spanish rule.
