BERNAL AREVALO, Marcela. Social Control in the Colonial Settlement Nuestra Señora Santa María de los Remedios del Cabo de la Vela. Rev. colomb. antropol. [online]. 2015, vol.51, n.2, pp.241-263. ISSN 0486-6525.

The colonial settlement for the extraction of pearls, Nuestra Señora Santa María de los Remedios del Cabo de la Vela was founded during the first half of the 16^thXVI century. The study has focused to determine if segregationist practices occurred between contact groups in this type of Spanish location. Although the Spanish Crown imposed policies of spatial division and control of different socio-cultural groups within the colony, preliminary results suggest that these not always became effective.

Palabras clave : Segregationist policies; colonial practices.
