Shallit Lecture given at BYU on February 2, 2010. This lecture addresses the nostalgia and romance that has long surrounded the Franciscan and Jesuit missions of America's Spanish Borderlands, and how this romanticism has colored our perception of the archaeological record. From San Francisco (California), through the American Southwest to St. Augustine (Florida), the mainstream national narrative has constructed and perpetuated an idealized, romanticized version of the Spanish mission in America -- complete with Mission Revival architectural styles and reconstructed archaeological sites that sometimes resemble Hollywood stage sets. This presentation draws upon the most recent archaeological evidence from across the Spanish Borderlands to suggest more historically-appropriate perspectives on America's mission heritage.
