| Sumario: | This article presents aspects of method and approach to study the mobility and rootedness of Hispanic interpreters during the conquests and territorialisation in America during the sixteenth century.

Based on the study of the proofs of merits and services of these characters, it proposes that their links and circulation were essential for the knowledge of local languages, the connection between conquests, the dynamics of interpretation and the establishment of royal jurisdiction. |
