HERRERA ANGEL, Marta. The transition between pre-Hispanic and colonial territorial organization in New Granada. hist.crit. [online]. 2006, n.32, pp.118-152. ISSN 0121-1617.

This article analyzes the continuities and ruptures between the pre-Hispanic and colonial forms of territorial organization, the legacy of which can still be seen in the physical political-administrative divisions of contemporary Colombia. The article is based on studies on this subject already conducted in central Colombia (the colonial provinces of Santafé and Pamplona, and the area over which the old city of Tunja had jurisdiction), the Caribbean plains (colonial provinces of Cartagena and Santa Marta), and the contemporary Colombian Southwest (comprised of the province of Popayan in the colonial period). The study highlights the importance of considering territoriality from a long-term perspective, which in some ways how it has been managed, and of centering the analysis on the physical territory and not only on the territorial practices of one or another of the groups that have inhabited it. Based on this, the article emphasizes the analytical advantages of not limiting the study of this phenomenon to the Republican or Colonial period, but of considering it in terms of when a particular territory was occupied, which in turn extends its study back to the period commonly known as "pre-Hispanic".

Palavras-chave : Territorial organization; New Granada; pre-Hispanic history; colonial history; Province of Santafé; Province of Tunja; Province of Popayan; Province of Cartagena; Province of Santa Marta; the Colombian Southwest.
