Our intention is to show how the combination of supposed mineral wealth, the agricultural potential derived from the numerous sources of water that ran through the region and its privileged geographical location, since it was located in a territory located between Paraguay, Upper Peru, the Rio de la Plata and Tucumán, were the main incentives for the jujeños to consider their conquest. We have consulted part of the documentation available in the Government Fund of the Historical Archive of Salta, the material digitized by the National Library of Brazil that is open to consultations on the website https://www.bn.gov.br and different testimonies bequeathed to us by some of the protagonists of the conquest, among which are the Jesuit fathers who administered several reductions in the region and left excellent descriptions of the practices of the indigenous people, as well as some agents of the colonial and republican government interested in open the Bermejo to river navigation En este trabajo nos proponemos realizar algunas consideraciones sobre las representaciones que, entre los siglos XVIII y XIX, diferentes agentes colonizadores tenían sobre la frontera oriental de la Intendencia de Salta del Tucumán, destacándose la importancia concedida al Bermejo. Nuestra intención es mostrar como la combinación de supuestas riquezas minerales, la potencialidad agrícola derivada de las numerosas fuentes de agua que recorrían la región y su privilegiada situación geográfica, ya que se ubicaba en un territorio situado entre el Paraguay, el Alto Perú, el Rio de la Plata y Tucumán, fueron los principales alicientes para que los salto-jujeños se plantearan su conquista. Hemos consultado parte de la documentación disponible en el Fondo de Gobierno del Archivo Histórico de Salta, el material digitalizado por la Biblioteca Nacional de Brasil que se encuentra abierto a consultas en su sitio web, y diferentes testimonios que nos legaron algunos de los protagonistas de la conquista, entre los que se encuentran los padres jesuitas que administraron varias reducciones en la región y dejaron excelentes descripciones de las prácticas de los indígenas, como así también algunos agentes del gobierno colonial y republicano interesados en abrir el Bermejo a la navegación fluvial.
