WAN MOGUEL, Ricardo. Bacteria and viruses in the last stage of the Caste War: causes of death of the fallen soldiers in Peto (1898-1902). Relac. Estud. hist. soc. [online]. 2023, vol.44, n.174, pp.90-122. Epub 25-Sep-2023. ISSN 2448-7554. https://doi.org/10.24901/rehs.v44i174.1008.
After 54 years of warfare, the Caste War or Mayan Social War was coming to an end. Federal troops were based in the eastern part of the Yucatan peninsula, in the current state of Quintana Roo. Peto's county was their base of operations. There, the soldiers arrived to besiege the Mayans who were fleeing the conflict and forming an alternate state to the Yucatecan. There was no direct confrontation but the objective was to take the settlements founded by the rebels. The objective of this article is to analyze the causes of death of the fallen soldiers in the Peto county in the last stage of the Caste War, between 1898 and 1902.
