my shallowness provoked me to ask the question. I was hoping for an
example or two and you all provided them. thanks.

So during the colonial times were there any learned indivduals in
Mexico? Scientists? Inventors? Musicians? Doctors? Architects? Poets? etc?

I guess I'm looking for that time period from the Conquest to the
1800's. I realize that the closer you get to current times you will have
a much larger selection of examples of the above, but I'm wondering what
was going on during the 400 years between 1500-1899?

just curious,

joseph

ps: didn't Spain open up a handful of Universities in these early times?
I
wonder what the graduates of these Universities were doing?
