| Sumario: | This paper analyses the positions of authorities and neighbours on the status of the indigenous peoples of Cordoba, and the criteria for defining their legitimate members. They are confronted with outsider integration practices, population mobility, and taxation in order to glimpse their criteria and practices regarding their belonging to the community. In order to do so, first we synthesize the complex processes of destructuring and rearticulating that implied a violent subjugation of the indigenous societies in this region; that is their distribution in encomiendas, the resettlement of peoples or groups in their encomenderos’ properties, and/ or their reduction in Indian towns. It is assumed that the voluntary or forced mobility of the indigenous population and the subsequent recreation of community ties within the Indian towns fuelled antagonistic positions about their nature and rights. |
