I28-R145-8386_oai2025-11-17 Conti, Santiago 2020-05-30 Between 1692 and 1694 Luján de Vargas conducted a visita (inspection) of the Tucumán governorship in order to listen make reparations to the Indians to reinforce the ordenanzas de Alfaro. This study aims to inquire into the jurisdiction’s particular characteristics that distinguish it from the rest of the governorship. It is not a comparative study but a case study. We consider these particularities are related to the singular dynamic of conquest in this jurisdiction, which bestowed a high degree of power on the encomenderos, allowing them to ignore the ordenanzas while leaving little room for the Indians to adapt to the colonial system. This resulted in a particular way of Indian labor, the domestic encomienda, and contributed to the weakness of the Indian towns. In this article we shall analyze the characteristics of the encomenderos as a group, the particularities of personal service in Catamarca, and the forms of Indian access to land. Entre 1692 y 1694 Luján de Vargas realizó una visita a la gobernación del Tucumán con el objeto de desagraviar a los indios encomendados y renovar la aplicación de las ordenanzas de Alfaro. Nos proponemos indagar acerca de cuáles eran las características particulares de la jurisdicción de Catamarca que la diferenciaban del resto de la gobernación. No se trata de un estudio comparativo, sino de caso. Consideramos que estas particularidades están directamente relacionadas con la singular dinámica de conquista que tuvo la jurisdicción, pues otorgó a los feudatarios una amplia libertad para evadir las ordenanzas de Alfaro y ofreció a los indígenas menores posibilidades de adaptación al sistema colonial. Esto dio lugar a la aparición de una forma de encomienda doméstica y a la debilidad de los pueblos de indios. Aquí analizamos las características del sector encomendero, las particularidades del servicio personal en Catamarca y las formas de acceso indígena a la tierra. application/pdf text/html https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/MA/article/view/8386 10.34096/mace.v28i1.8386 spa Sección Etnohistoria, Instituto de Ciencias Antropológicas.
