Spanish and Portuguese word meaning 'entrance' or 'entry,' from Latin 'intrata.' Used historically to describe Spanish conquistador expeditions and formal processional entries.
The 'entradas' of Spanish conquistadors in the Americas were carefully choreographed spectacles of power—they would arrive on horseback with banners flying, fundamentally shaping how indigenous peoples first encountered Europeans.
