| Sumario: | This paper explores the strong attraction for the Indian life-style that the ones who lived in the araucanian-mapuche back country were supposed to feel. Those territories were also called "outside frontiers" in the colonial documents since they stayed away from the political and military control. A focused study of the conditions related to moving and traveling abroad toward Indian controlled territories leads to the identification of three categories of people: the captives, the guardians (Indians friends captains), and the fugitives - whose transfer occurred in some very different ways. These last ones are mentioned in some very different ways of the transcripted document in appendix (a list of captives and yanaconas established in 1664, which is also a list containing fugitives). The double focus on the broad period that is the XVII th century and the short period covering the few years succeeding the Indian military take over in 1655, enables the understanding of what was at stake in the adoption of habits that were considered as proper to an enemy, hence doubtlessly barbarian. |
