PITA PICO, Roger. Conflicts within indigenous doctrines of the new kingdom of granada. Cuest. teol. [online]. 2013, vol.40, n.93, pp.17-46. ISSN 0120-131X.

In the northeast of the New Kingdom of Granada the evangelization process was conditioned by the population dynamics and the demographic changes experienced by each one of the social and ethnic groups. The dramatic increase in the white-mestiza population and the decrease in the indigenous communities enabled a new social, political, administrative and religious configuration; which is evidenced by the raise in Spaniard villages and the reduction in the indigenous shelters. The aim of the research here presented is to observe how this new context brought changes and rearrangements in the location of temples and doctrine centres according to the segregation principles and the actual opportunities of economic maintenance within religious service. Based on a historical-interpretative analysis and the use of file and secondary sources, the main hypothesis of the work reveals that such a complex process generated tensions and a strong fight of ethnic groups over the control of churches and ornaments, a force game in which the reduced indigenous inhabitants saw how their power of influence was drastically reduced.
