Abstract

En este artículo se examinan las relaciones espaciales y políticas de la Iglesia Católica, la colonia británica y las comunidades mayas asentadas en el sur de Honduras Británica. La investigación se basa en registros de archivo desde finales del siglo XIX hasta principios del siglo XX. Los desacuerdos entre la Iglesia Católica y la Colonia Británica fueron mitigados por un acuerdo: los mayas debían instalarse en comunidades permanentes.
