Sumario:The current city of Paraná had its origins during the first decades of the 18th century, in the dynamic space of the Santa Fe border known as “la otra banda del Paraná”. The Spanish-Creole, Indigenous and Afro-descendant settlers constituted the population of the small town that would acquire greater economic and political importance over time. Aiming at generating new information about the Indigenous and Afro-descendant population present in the town and city of Paraná during the second half of the 18th century and the first decades of the 19th century, archival work is carried out around ecclesiastical documents and the population census of Paraná of 1824. The contexts of application of the different socio-ethnic categories used in the documents are discussed, as well as the particular characteristics of the different sectors that make up the population of Paraná are analyzed.
