| Sumario: | This paper proposes to discuss the usefulness of notary protocol records as a serial source to address the study of displacements, migrations, and mobilities at different scales (social, spatial, and temporal) by groups registered as Indians in Córdoba during the last quarter of the sixteenth century. Within the context of colonial domination, the documents analyzed make it possible to recognize the agency of the subjects under study and to differentiate those compulsive displacements, group or individual, caused by the Spanish elite, from those others that rather represented their own decision-making that would have constituted forms of resistance and/or survival of the local populations within the framework of the colonial social, economic and political relations in which they were inserted.
