Early impact of Mesoamerican goods in Iberian society
Early Impact of Mesoamerican Goods on Iberian Society
Christopher Columbus's first voyage to the New World had forever changed the western world. The introduction of new lands, peoples, foods, and goods led to incredible changes in the societies of the Old World. According to the book "Iberian Technology in Nautical Sciences, Cartography and Ship Development from 1400-1600", the influx of new goods into Europe was highly influenced by Iberian nautical technology of the time. Foods and goods from the Americas had a unique effect on European societies, particularly in Spain and Portugal. The introduction of American "miracle foods" was instrumental in pulling the Iberian population out of the famine and hunger that was common in the 16th century.〔Super,John C.. Food, Conquest, and Colonization in Sixteenth-Century Spanish America. University of New Mexico Press, 1994.〕 Maize (corn), potatoes, turkey, squash, beans, and tomatoes were all incorporated into existing Spanish and Portuguese cuisine styles. Equally important was the impact of coffee and sugar cane growing in the New World (despite having already existed in the Old World). Along with the impact from food, the introduction of new goods (such as tobacco) also altered how Iberian society worked. One can categorize the impacts of these New World goods and foods based on their influence over the state, the economy, religious institutions, and the culture of the time. The power and influence of the state grew as external entities (i.e. other European nations) became dependent on Spain for these New Goods in the early 16th century. The economies of both Portugal and Spain saw an enormous increase in power as a result of trading these American goods. While the influence on religious thought was influenced by the introduction of new people, the new foods and goods also played a role in shaping religion at the time. Iberian culture at the time was very influenced by New World goods, as is illustrated in poetry, paintings, and novels from the time. Mesoamerican foods and goods had an enormous influence on Iberian society in the 16th century.
==Luxury goods and foods==
Several of the goods and foods brought to the Old World appealed to the lavish tastes of the upper classes. The difficulties involved in gaining this goods led them to go for higher prices and their elite status amongst the rich.
