その他の書誌記述:This paper is part of a larger research project that attempts to present a panoramic view of the history of archival institutions and practices in Colombia. In this sense, it approaches the establishment of archives, some archival practices and their uses in the New Kingdom of Granada during the period of Spanish domination between the sixteenth and nineteenth centuries. The present work has been carried out under a qualitative approach with an exploratory-descriptive scope and by means of documentary research techniques. The Archivo General de la Nación, the Archivo Histórico de Medellín and published primary sources from different historical archives of the country have been consulted. The article exposes archival practices, such as inventorying, making copy books and conservation techniques in the context of the colonial administration and determines the bureaucratic uses of the archives in that period. It concludes that the notion of archives and archival practices brought by the Spaniards to the territory we know today as Colombia introduced a vision of registration and memory based on alphabetical writing, temporal linearity, control and secrecy, with a strong state influence. This notion of archives has been a determining factor for the State up to the present day. Studying the history of archives and colonial archival practices is crucial to understanding archival traditions in Colombia.
