The native peoples generally viewed the new religion in terms very different from that of the missionaries. As conflict broke out after 1550 as Spaniards invaded the Chichimeca frontier (the frontier between sedentary and nomadic natives), the missionaries faced new challenges on both sides of the frontier. Some sedentary natives resisted evangelization, and the missionaries saw themselves in a war against Satan and his minions. The Augustinians assumed a pivotal role in the evangelization campaign on both sides of the Chichimeca frontier, and employed different methods in the effort to convince the natives to embrace the new faith and to defeat Satan?s designs. They used graphic visual aids and the threat of an eternity of suffering in hell to bring recalcitrant natives, such as the Otomi of the Mezquital Valley, into the folded. 410 0$aEuropean expansion and indigenous response ;$vVolume 12. 606 $aChichimecs$xWars, 1550-1591 606 $aChichimecs$xMissions$xHistory$y16th century 606 $aChichimecs$xSocial conditions 607 $aMexico$xHistory$ySpanish colony, 1540-1810 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aChichimecs$xWars, 1550-1591. 615 0$aChichimecs$xMissions$xHistory 615 0$aChichimecs$xSocial conditions. 676 $a972/.02 700 $aJackson$b Robert H$0303859 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910462880903321 996 $aConflict and conversion in sixteenth century central Mexico$91917941 997 $aUNINA
