  Pedro Carrasco - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pedro Carrasco (1943-2001) was a Spanish boxer whose fame transcended boxing rings: During the 1970s, he was a media darling in Spain, just like Muhammad Ali, Sugar Ray Leonard and Oscar De La Hoya have been in the United States.
The victory was marred by controversy, as Carrasco won the title while lying on the canvas: He had been hit to the head by Ramos, near the back of Carrasco's head.
Carrasco, who was a culturally educated fighter, became a sensation with the media and with tabloid magazines instantly, and he started to hang out with Spaniard show business stars, having his picture come out on the covers of such magazines as ¡Hola!

 Child Marriage and Complex Families (cemithualtin) among the Ancient Aztec (Nahua)
Pedro Carrasco, who first brought the Nahua censuses to the attention of scholars, used these unique documents to prove that joint families (cemithualtin) was the most common form of family structure among the early sixteenth century Nahuas.
Carrasco and Cline are convinced, and I concur, that the Morelos censuses faithfully reflect native society, virtually untouched by the reformist zeal of Europeans.
Carrasco's ratio may be pointing to a relative abundance in the denominator of married couples, including a sizeable number of married children less than fifteen years old, instead of an absolute scarcity of young children.

 The Aztec (Nahua) calli of ancient Mexico: household, family, and gender
Carrasco’s use of joint is wholly understandable from his solidly grounded ethnohistorical work with Nahuatl linguistics and from his insightful translations of Nahuatl texts into Spanish and English.
Kellogg, citing Carrasco, concludes: "[t]he Nahuatl words for family are mostly descriptive terms that refer to common residence and thus correspond more exactly to the English ‘household’: cencalli (‘one house’), cencaltin (‘those in one house’), cemithualtin (‘those in one yard’), techan tlaca (‘people in someone’s dwelling’), cenyeliztli (literally, ‘one stay’)"(Kellogg 1993:211; see also Schroeder 1998:345).
Kellogg concurs with Lockhart along with Carrasco and Cline in emphasizing the role of the Nahua household as a fundamental unit of Nahua society and culture.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Spanish-American Literature
With respect to the original play in Quichua it was long thought to be entirely of native origin, but now the critics tend to believe that it is an imitation of the Spanish classical drama written in the Quichua language by a Spanish missionary in the region.
Thje history of real literature in the land begins with the epic, "La Araucana", of Alonso de Ercilla in the sixteenth century, but that work, since it was completed by its author in Spain, is usually treated under the head of the literature of Spain.
On the model of Ercilla's poem a Chilian, Pedro de Oña, began, but did not finish, although it has 16,000 lines, his "Arauco domado" (Lima, 1596), in virtue of which he is the first native author in Chile.
