https://utvac.org/event/pablo-tut-land-invention?date=Between 1835 and 1836, European colonists and the centralized Mexican government fought to control the Texas region. The Mexican government forced Maya men from the Yucatán Peninsula to fight alongside Mexican soldiers. During the 1836 Battle of Mission Refugio, a village located 150 miles south of present-day Austin, several of these Maya soldiers were killed and laid to rest. In Land Invention, artist Pablo Tut traces the journey of these Maya soldiers from the Yucatán to Texas and presents a monument to their legacy.
