Sumario:Few, or perhaps no other group of Indians in the district of Jujuy, deserved as much attention and care, in the XVII century, from the civil and ecclesiastical authorities, as the Ocloyas.

But in this union of views and of highly humanitarian and Christian civilization purposes, which they all pursued together, a conflict of great resonance arose among the Doctrineros.
