The ex-convent of St. Jerome in Mexico City was the object of an intensive restoration program begun in 1976 by the Secretariá de Asentamientos Humanos y Obras Públicas. Later in that year individuals of the Instituto Nacional de Antropologiáe Historia assumed responsibility for the finished project and product. The importance of this site as the convent of Sor Juana Inéz de la Cruz prompted this effort. The convent ceased to exist as a religious house in 1863 and the buildings and area were divided for government and secular use. At the time of the restoration the remaining original structures had been heavily modified and parts were in use as a garage/machine shop and low income housing. The report puts forth the goals of the archaeology, some of the material found and photographs and plans of the structure before and during restoration. Unfortunately it is a very cursory article and does not include any discussion of the compromises between incomplete archaeology and the final results now available for public viewing. Also not included is the attempt on the part of some Mexican architects to establish a Mexican typography for Majolica disregarding the works of Goggins, Listers, and Olvera. Consequently, the displays of Majolica at the convent are incorrectly labeled and dated. The site, now restored, is being used as a school, offering classes at university level. -- AATA
