	Missions in a Musical Key. The Jesuit Reductions of Chiquitos, Bolivia
		The name Chiquitos (little ones) had been given to the 31 tribes in this area by the sixteenth-century explorer Ñuflo de Chávez as a reference to the narrow doors of their homes.
		Throughout colonial history, the Chiquitos missions would remain hemmed in by hostile tribes and the swamps of the Pantanal, inaccessible on all sides except for the lifeline to Santa Cruz.
		The churches are especially impressive on the inside, not only because of their sheer size (especially at San Ignacio and Concepción, now a cathedral), but also because of the richness of their carved and gilt wooden retablos, pulpits, and confessionals, some of them decorated with glittering pieces of mica as they were in colonial times.

	On a mission to visit a remote Bolivian temple - The Boston Globe
		''Chiquitos" means small in Spanish, and the structure is magnificent -- the first built by the Jesuits as part of a massive evangelization campaign that ensured the freedom of tens of thousands of Native Americans who otherwise would have become slaves of the Spanish conquistadores.
		But its glory remains almost hidden by its relatively remote location -- although the town of San José de Chiquitos is accessible by train from the city of Santa Cruz, which has an airport with connections from the capital, La Paz.
		That should have entitled the temple to aid from the government and financial institutions, but the restoration team this year has only $15,000, left over from a contribution by a state environmental agency.

	The Jesuit Missions: Their Churches
		Of the better known Jesuit missions of Argentina and Brazil, and especially those of Paraguay (constructed in similar fashion to those of the Chiquitos before being rebuilt in stone), every one is now a ruin.
		In most cases, the churches were surprisingly simple structures, essentially "a long hall made of a wooden frame with adobe walls, a pitched wooden roof and two rows of wooden columns separating the aisles", according to the noted art historian Dr. Gauvin Bailey (Art of Colonial America, p.
		The churches of the Chiquitania, however, with the sole exception of San José de Chiquitos, were mostly of wood and adobe.

	CPD: South America, Site SA23, South-eastern Santa Cruz, Bolivia
		The lower slopes of the Chiquitos and Santiago mountains are covered by forest vegetation similar in structure (and probably composition) to that on the Brazilian Shield (Navarro 1992).
		In the adjacent Tucavaca Valley, a distinctive closed-canopy dry forest is on the alluvial soils derived from the shield (Gentry 1993, 1994).
		South of the Serranía de Chiquitos the soils are much more sandy and the vegetation rapidly changes in structure and composition to the xerophytic deciduous forest (thorn scrub) characteristic of the Gran Chaco (CPD Site SA22).
