Notes: Anthropological Papers of the University of Arizona Number 13. “This ethnohistorical monograph focuses on the aboriginal inhabitants of the Bolsón de Mapimí during Spanish colonial times until their extinction about mid-eighteenth century. In terms of ecological analysis, the arid region remained a refuge for native groups, since Spaniards could not sustain settlement within it. Griffen sketches conflict between two societies in adjacent ecological niches.” (Hispanic American Historical Review (1970) 50 (3): 590–591.)(https://read.dukeupress.edu/hahr/article/50/3/590/152621/Culture-Change-and-Shifting-Populations-in-Central ) Spanish versus Indian, conflict versus peace (or perhaps tolerance is a better word), push versus pull.
