DESCRIPTION:Over the course of millennia Indigenous and European cultures 
 profoundly diverged in how they organized their relationships with other a
 nimals. Sixteenth-century European authorities understood these difference
 s in terms of cultural evolution and diabolism: they framed animal husband
 ry as a mark of civilizational advancement\, and\, relatedly\, viewed many
  forms of animal subjectivity as potentially demonic.  These discourses ha
 ve seeped into modern scholarship and distorted or even erased the myriad 
 ways Indigenous people interacted with and thought about other-than-human 
 creatures. In particular\, scholars have ignored or misunderstood practice
 s of familiarization – the taming of wild animals undertaken for affecti
 ve\, spiritual\, and political reasons.  In this talk I will explore the e
 ntanglement of colonial discourses of domestication and diabolism\, and fa
 miliarization practices among Nahua\, Zapotec\, and Mixtec communities bef
 ore and after Spanish colonization.
