CONTI, Santiago. LA VISITA DE LUJÁN DE VARGAS COMO MOMENTO DE DESAGRA-VIO. SERVICIO PERSONAL, VIOLENCIA Y USOS DE LAS JUSTICIAS. CATAMARCA 1693. Andes [online]. 2022, vol.33, n.1, pp.6-8. ISSN 1668-8090.

Between 1692 and 1694 the judge of the Audiencia de Charcas, don Antonio Martínez Luján de Vargas, conducted a visita to the governorship of Tucumán to interrogate and give legal redress to the Indians of the encomiendas. By analyzing the visita, this research addresses the problem of Indigenous capacity of adaptation into the colonial system at the end of the seventeenth century, arguing that the conquest dynamic on the territory and its destructuring consequences severely limited that capacity. Indigenous’ denounces for harsh treatment allows to analyze Indians’ possibilities to use colonial justice to defend their rights, the centrality that violence had in the functioning of the encomiendas, the legitimacy and power of don Ignacio Callavi, cacique of Pipanaco town and the encomendero’s attempt to use the visita to solve conflicts between them.
