ANN: H-LATAM delay
Colleagues,
On behalf of the moderators of H-LATAM, I apologize for the delay in posting so many messages in a timely manner. As you may know the list, along with its sister lists, has moved to the new H-Net Commons. This has required those of us who moderate the list to be trained in the new system. That has taken far longer than any of us has expected.
I am pleased to announce that we now have a small cadre of trained moderators and business should return to normal over the weekend.
QUERY: Método para determinar la pureza del oro (quilates) en el siglo XVI
Apreciados colegas:
Tengo una inquietud: ¿alguno de ustedes sabe cuál era el método que usaba la población general en el siglo XVI en los reinos españoles de Ampérica para determinar la pureza del oro, es decir, cuántos quilates tenía? No me estoy refiriendo a los especialistas en las Cajas Reales o Fundiciones, sino a la población común, cuando hacía sus transacciones monetarias en el mercado.
Agradezco cualquier dato al respecto.
Cordialmente,
Jorge Gamboa
