Pedrarias Dávila y sus fundaciones en Tierra Firme, 1513-1522. Nuevos datos sobre los inicios del urbanismo hispánico en América

Abstract

Panamá la Vieja and Natá, two Spanish foundations of the second decade of the sixteenth century, offer to students of urbanism in the new world importan information about the famous orthogonal Castillian plan. The plans of both cities are intimately related to the ordinances of 1513 and could also have served as models for the more famous foundations of Oaxaca, the Guatemalan plateau or the Andean region.
