Description:
Based on sound research into the turbulent first twenty years of the Spanish conquest of New Mexico, Acoma is an unforgettable story of conquest and love. It is the spring of 1598, and after a long journey north from Mexico City, the explorer conquistador Juan de Onate arrives at the Rio Grande and claims the vast territory of Nuevo Mexico for Spain. When the natives of the region, the Acoma people, rebel against the Spanish rulers, they are mutilated and forced into slavery. The tensions in the land are brought to the surface as a forbidden love develops between Rohona, an Acoma slave, and his mistress, Mafia Angelica.
Expand description
From this forbidden love affair a child is born, and Maria Angelica and Rohona must protect their secret from her husband, from Spanish authorities -- even from their son, who finds a love even more forbidden than that of his parents.
