| Sumario: | Within the context of a punitive expedition towards the Chaco region in 1731, several companies of the militias of Córdoba deserted and returned to the city refusing to subordinate to the lieutenant in charge. This episode was registered in some historical documents found in a file at the Archivo Histórico de la Provincia de Córdoba. That file also contains another document, related to a previous event, but which also concerns the same lieutenant and militias. This paper has a double objective: on the one hand, we analyze the desertion based on a careful reading of the different documents, seeking to explain the different edges –political, socioeconomic and interethnic– of the conflict. On the other hand, we present a methodological reflection on the documents that compound the file, focusing on their formats, the later assemble in one file, and some issues concerning the field work in the historical archives. |
