== | == Historical Archive of the State of Zacatecas == | ||
This important archive contains an extensive documentary collection for the history of the region. This collection includes the years 1557 to 1940. It also includes the part of the file of the city council of the city of Zacatecas that was rescued after the fire of November 27, 1975. On that occasion, the historical archive was in the eastern part of the palace of government. Unfortunately, much of the documentation was destroyed, including civil registry books, testaments, donations and participations given by the miners to the king to exploit the wealth of the mines, historical documents of the Superior Court and the Supreme Court of Justice, as well as as invaluable books of theology, philosophy and the history of Zacatecas. | |||
Much of the documentation that currently is in the historical archive includes the colonial and national periods. The documentation is quite varied, and includes several case files that refer to the real estate, town hall, township, mayor, quartermaster, and Indian villages. The documentation also includes cedularios, as well as a wide collection of notary and notary protocols. The file is chronologically classified into backgrounds, series, and sub-series. | |||
