- Abstract
This article discusses landownership in the Los Llanos plains region of La Rioja in the Viceroyalty of Río de la Plata, Argentina in the 18th century. It examines a variety of sources contemporary to the time period studied, including land lawsuits, censuses, and ecclesiastical reports. The authors also analyze the Spanish settlement, the removal of indigenous populations from the area, and the development of the process of land appropriation. A sociographical study is provided, including an exploration of the prevalence of land conflicts during the time period, especially those between the poor peasantry and the rich landowners of the region.
