Antonio Ruiz de Montoya
1582‐1652
A Peruvian Jesuit. A criollo born in Lima. After participating in the conquest of Chile, he became a Jesuit. In 1607, he was sent to Paraguay to preach to the Guarani people, and worked to build a settlement made up of clergy and natives, a society (reduction) isolated from the Spanish society of the colony. He wrote two books on the Guarani language and "The Conquest of Souls by the Jesuits in the Provinces of Paraguay." [Someda Hideto]

Carlos Montoya

1903‐93
A Spanish flamenco guitarist. Of gypsy descent, his uncle was Ramón M. (1880-1949), a master of the flamenco guitar, but he learned how to play on his own without being taught by him. He began performing in bars in Madrid at around age 14, and at around age 20 was chosen as an accompanist for leading dancers. He moved to the United States around 1940, and since then has been famous as a soloist, giving recitals at New York's Town Hall and Carnegie Hall. With his wild and dynamic playing style, he made a great contribution to spreading the beauty and value of the flamenco guitar to the world, along with Sabicas (1917-90).
