This paper deals with the building of Indian « nations » in the Nueva Vizcaya and Tucumán provinces, two of the farthermost parts of the Spanish American empire, located on its northern and southern boundaries respectively. Seeing as most of these « nations’« names are heteronomous, the present paper intends to bring out the underlying logic behind their creation and follows the taxonomic path followed by some of the Indian groups involved. Viewed from such margins, the « nation » takes on an altogether different meaning from that used by Europeans and conquerors themselves in describing their own identity. The naming process implied here consisted in registering under a category dependent on the vicissitudes of the ongoing colonial project rather than in accurately identifying any ethnic identity - contrary to what positivist reappraisals of colonial sources averred from as early as the last quarter of the 19th century. |
