Abstract
The present article devoted to the Spanish Conquest of the last Maya kingdom, the Tayasal. The present publication gives a brief review of their origin from the builders of Chichen-Itza and their historical fate in the Modern Times. The focus of the present research is the role of embassy of the fray Avendaño-y-Loyola in the Spanish Conquest of the last Indian Kingdom of the American Continent. The Author comes to conclusion, that Avendaño’s attempt to use the Itza’s religious believes was decisive in failure to all attempts to induct them into Spanish subjects.
