Windows to the Unknown: Cabeza de Vaca's Journey to the Southwest

The Center for the Study of the Southwest and The Witte Museum in San Antonio engaged in a joint project that draws from the resources of the two institutions — Texas State's rare 1555 edition of Alvar Núñez Cabeza de Vaca's La Relación and the Witte's numerous artifacts from European and native cultures with whom Cabeza de Vaca was associated — to present an integrated public program at both sites.
 

La Relación Digitization and Access Project

Digitized images and an English translation of the 1555 edition of La Relación along with other authoritative works on the subject. Produced by The Southwestern Writers Collection at Texas State University-San Marcos. A comprehensive resource.
