Juan Ortiz de Zapata

 A Stan Klos Biography

ZAPATA, Juan Ortiz de (thah-pah'-tah), Mexican author, born in Castile about 1620; died in Chihuahua about 1690. He became a Jesuit, and was attached to the missions of northern Mexico. After learning the Indian dialects he was vicar of the parish of Santa Rosa de Cusihuiriachie, where he labored for about thirty years. He wrote in 1678 a valuable "Relacion de las Misiones que la Companía de Jesus tiene en el Reino y la Provincia de la Nueva Vizcaya," which has appeared in the state publication, "Documentos para la Historia Mexicana" (6 vols., Madrid, 1860). Zapata's work is also mentioned in Father Bernard of Bologne's "Bibliotheca Societatis Jesus" (1715): in the " Bibliotheca Scriptorum Societatis Jesus" (Pisa, 1729-'45); and in Bancroft's "Native Races" (San Francisco, 1883).
