Hernando Cortes on the Web __ "This site holds 250 resources about Hernando Cortes (1485–1547) the conqueror of Mexico also (and more correctly) known as Hernán Cortés. A hero to some, a villain to as many more, Cortes and his deeds have never failed to raise emotions. If the exploit itself stuns—how a small band of Spanish soldiers arrived in a strange country and swiftly brought about the overthrow of a large and powerful empire—the violence of the act, and the wantonness of the destruction are equally well known."
