Why Martin Ocelolt?
Although there are only a few references about this important indigenous priest, he is just one example of how indigenous trials played out during the continuous of the Spanish Inquisition. Even though some Franciscan friars were in fear of power individual like Martin Ocelotl who might use their influence to make the indigenous revert back to their old ways. However, because of his trial and other examples of indigenous leaders in Mexico, we know that the Spanish Inquisition changed their standard of trying them. Rather than using violence towards them, many of the friars believed that the indigenous were like children and that need instruction to know the difference between right from wrong.
