- Abstract
This article analyzes the discourses and representations deployed around the diseases attributed to the indigenous confined to the Viceroyalty of Peru for the period 1570-1600 in the Geographical Relations of the Indies, and some contemporary relevant medicals treaties. Considering the context of colonial domination in which these descriptions were developed it is feasible to express that there is more than a "scientific-medical" or health concern because they refer to a set of ideas related to views on the symbolic, political and moral order of the space and colonial subjects.
