Log Barns of Hispanic New Mexico

Pages 21-34 | Published online: 28 Jul 2009
 

Abstract

Barns for livestock, hay, or both animals and fodder constitute a significant element of northern New Mexico's Hispanic cultural landscape. The origin, antiquity, modifications in design through space and time, and related nomenclature of these barns suggest the region's complex intracultural history. Two types of barns, the tasolera and twin-crib structure, exemplify the Hispanic artisan's innovative nature. Diversity within the Hispanic vernacular architectural tradition, as is illustrated by barns, suggests several lessons for students of folk housing.
