Its origins, however, can be traced back to <a href="/wiki/Juan_de_Garay" title="Juan de Garay">Juan de Garay</a>'s foundation of Buenos Aires itself, in 1580. Newly arrived to the dusty riverbank settlement, <a href="/wiki/Jesuit" class="mw-redirect" title="Jesuit">Jesuit</a> clergymen in 1608 secured a title to much of the 2 hectares (4.9 acres) lot, on which Garay's earlier plans for a central plaza had been abandoned. In 1661, the local governor purchased the eastern half for inclusion into the grounds of the city's new fort; this section soon became the <i>Plaza de Armas</i>.<sup id="cite_ref-nacion_1-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-nacion-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Following over a century of overuse and neglect, the local colonial government attempted to give a semblance of order to the plaza by having a colonnade built across it from north to south. Completed in 1804, the <a href="/wiki/Romanesque_architecture" title="Romanesque architecture">Romanesque</a> structure became the plaza's market and the lot to the west of the colonnade became the <i>Plaza de la Victoria</i>. The area continued divided between these two plazas until 1883 and with only minor changes in landscaping, chief among them the 1811 addition of the <a href="/wiki/May_Pyramid" class="mw-redirect" title="May Pyramid">May Pyramid</a>, a monument put up to commemorate the newly independent "Provinces of the Rio de la Plata". That year, however, Mayor <a href="/wiki/Torcuato_de_Alvear" title="Torcuato de Alvear">Torcuato de Alvear</a> ordered the space modernized, resulting in the colonnade's demolition and the creation of the modern <i>Plaza de Mayo.<sup id="cite_ref-nacion_1-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-nacion-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></i> </p> <ul
