Sumario:Colonial world has multiply entries, such as the daily life of some of the corporations that were part of its hermetic segments. During the excavation of a latrine well of Santa Catalina’s nuns it was possible to distinguish a differential use of material culture; food consumption, and discard patterns in relation to the social classes where this nuns belonged in the external world. This can be said without neglecting the reproduction of the characteristic social classes system of the colonial world. This was a powerful and rich clerical order that consumed good and diverse types of food, but using a very rough ware that showed no personal objects -except for a single person that had access to the best of Spain-. This is contrasting to the late XIX century were consumption entered massively to the convent, reproducing the outdoor social system.
