QUESTION
How should this passage be interpreted?
Page 66: “The Indians who had fled from there came to us in peace, asking us for their women and children. And we gave them to them, except the governor kept with him a cacique of theirs, which was the cause of their being greatly offended.”
Were these women hostages, or is there a hint that they were sexually abused by the governor?
