I want to thank John Watanabe, David McCreery, Bill Taylor, Eric Zolov, and the two anonymous reviewers for The Americas, their critiques helped me to clarify and deepen my arguments. Ron Levere sharpened and formatted the Gaceta images. The University of Southern Maine (USM), Marion Jasper Whiting Foundation, and American Historical Association funded the research. The 2009–2010 USM Trustee Professorship afforded me the time to write the first draft.

2. Throughout Latin America, rape conviction rates tended to be low. See for example Christiansen, Tanja Disobedience, Slander, Seduction, and Assault: Women and Men in Cajamarca, Peru, 1862–1900 (Austin: University of Texas Press, 2004), p. 128;CrossRefGoogle Scholar Putnam, Lara E. “Work, Sex, and Power in a Central American Export Economy at the Turn of the Twentieth Century,” in Gender, Sexuality, and Power in Latin America Since Independence, French, William E. and Bliss, Katherine Elaine eds.

By contrast, in early republican Peru nearly half of the accused rapists were convicted; see Chambers, Sarah C. From Subjects to Citizens: Honor, Gender, and Politics in Arequipa, Peru, 1780–1854 (University Park: Pennsylvania State University Press, 1999), p. 211;Google Scholar and by the same author, “Private Crimes, Public Order: Honor, Gender, and the Law in Early Republican Peru,” in Honor, Status, and Law in Modern Latin America, Caulfield, Sueann Chambers, Sarah C. and Putnam, Lara eds.

3. As Catherine Komisaruk points out, historians’ and archivists’ methods and contemporary scribes’ choice of words often occlude the study of rape, see “Rape Narratives, Rape Silences: Sexual Violence and Judicial Testimony in Colonial Guatemala,” Biography 31:3 (Summer 2008), pp. 379, 390, 392–393 n.6. Incidents of rape appear in documents labeled for other crimes. For one such example, see AGCA, índice 116, Chimaltenango, 1916, leg. 17c, ex. 53. Since notaries sometimes mislabeled rape as lesiones (injuries), amenazas(threats), or raptos, and occasionally litigants described sexual violence in their testimonies even though the proceedings were about another crime, I cast a wide archival net. Of the thousands of judicial records from Chimaltenango’s department court from 1900 to 1925, I closely examined 166. Fifteen of these specifically dealt with rape. Given the 119 cases categorized or co-categorized as estupro or violación in the docket index, this sample represents 12.6 percent of the total. Taking into account the sexual violence litigation that was not categorized as such, the sample size is probably closer to 10 percent of all cases dealing with rape in the Chimaltenango Juzgado de Primera Instancia.
