description The main objective of this research is to identify how individuals belonging to the Mapuche people were integrated into domestic service in the province of Concepción during the first half of the 19th century. This investigation takes into account the circumstances surrounding this labor integration, with a particular focus on the master-servant relationship that facilitated their inclusion in testamentary legacies. On the review of more than 450 wills that were legalized in the various notary offices of Concepción between 1823 and 1861, a dozen cases were identified where it is expressly stated that the servant legatee was of Mapuche origin, and that the inheritance was bequeathed to them “for services”. The analysis of these wills, from a qualitative perspective, allows us to understand a series of common practices for the time, such as the use of Mapuche servants by the elites of Concepción, the change of Mapuche surnames for a “Chileanized” one, the transfer of surnames to servants when they had been raised by their masters, the bequest of various elements as remuneration for services and their insertion into a monetarized system, among others. The notarial sources will be complemented with the use of autobiographical accounts of travelers who were in Chile, such as Eduard Poeppig, Mary Graham or Edmund Reuel Smith, texts in which they give an account of how relations between Mapuche and Chileans functioned in the Frontier zone.

Sobre la revisión de más de 450 testamentos que fueron legalizados en las diversas notarías de Concepción entre los años 1823 y 1861, se identificó una decena de casos donde se declara expresamente que el sirviente legatario era de origen mapuche y que se les legaba dicha herencia “por servicios”. El análisis de estos testamentos, desde un punto de vista cualitativo, permite comprender una serie de prácticas comunes para la época, como era el uso de sirvientes mapuche por parte de las elites penquistas; el cambio de apellidos de raigambre mapuche por uno “chilenizado”; la cesión de apellidos a sirvientes cuando habían sido criados por sus amos; el legado de diversos elementos como remuneración por servicios; entre otros. Las fuentes notariales se complementarán con relatos autobiográficos de viajeros que estuvieron en Chile durante el periodo comprendido en esta investigación, entre quienes se encuentran Eduard Poeppig, Mary Graham y Edmund Reuel Smith, textos en los que se da cuenta cómo funcionaban las relaciones entre mapuches y chilenos en la zona de frontera.Instituto Panamericano de Geografía e Historia2024-05-20info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionDouble-Blind Peer Review articleArtículo evaluado por pares (doble ciego)application/pdfhttps://revistasipgh.org/index.php/rehiam/article/view/553610.35424/rha.168.2024.5536Journal of the History of the Americas; No. 168 (2024): Journal of the History of the Americas N° 168 (may-august 2024); 39-64Revista de Historia de América; Núm. 168 (2024): Revista de Historia de América N° 168 (mayo-agosto 2024); 39-642663-371X0034-832510.35424/rha.168.2024reponame:Revista de Historia de Américainstname:INSTITUTO PANAMERICANO DE GEOGRAFÍA E HISTORIAinstacron:IPGHspahttps://revistasipgh.org/index.php/rehiam/article/view/5536/6458Derechos de autor 2024 Revista de Historia de Américahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:revistasipgh.org:article/55362024-08-22T18:15:47Z
