It was too early still to have the materials or the skilled workers to do anything more elaborate. The workforce was mainly made up of the indigenous people of the region. <br />Doing the Jesuit trail in Córdoba is highly recommended, even if you are not a history nerd. You get to see lovely scenery in the hills and get to know a bit of the past as well. <br />I had the same thoughts as you did when I was working on that photo of the turkey :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06923613028048879472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7639138503200447572.post-69355446837823246282012-03-15T13:12:04.669+01:002012-03-15T13:12:04.669+01:00Thank you for the detailed history of the Jesuits ...Thank you for the detailed history of the Jesuits in Córdoba. I knew of the existence of the estancias, but it was interesting to learn how they played a role in the Jesuits' missionary work. Thanks to you, my list of sights to see in Córdoba is getting very long...<br /><br />The Jesuits were also very active in the Philadelphia area, and they founded a number of schools and a university (St. Joseph's University). They obviously know good architecture, because most of the university's buildings are lovely--stone construction with lots of character.<br /><br />By the way, that turkey looks great in the photo, but he'd look even better on my dinner table. haha ;)Katiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09037164015744825760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7639138503200447572.post-37233875814952305892012-03-15T10:34:12.772+01:002012-03-15T10:34:12.772+01:00@BLOGitse,

If you are interested, keep an eye on this series I've started here in the blog, because there's a lot more coming up. The Society's church in the city of Córdoba is very beautiful - you'll see. ;)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06923613028048879472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7639138503200447572.post-76562633280731480522012-03-15T10:12:39.860+01:002012-03-15T10:12:39.860+01:00huh, what a knowledge bank you are! :)
