520 | |a Oral testimonies and, specially, those of Native people were often key pieces in the trials brought into Spanish America's Courts of justice. In many cases, they are also the only sources available to capture indigenous voices in the Colonial archive. Nevertheless, although its centrality for our understanding not only of the Spanish Empire's system of justice but also the records on which our historical narratives are built, little attention has been paid to this issue. This chapter aims at analyzing the production and use of indigenous oral testimonies in the Court of the governor of Yucatan, as well as its subsequent evaluation in the Council of the Indies in sixteenth century Spain. Building upon the trial relative to the transport of tributes by Maya tamenes (1573-1579), we will examine how witnesses were selected and their statements taken, and how those proofs were evaluated in court. Special attention will be paid to the ways in which pressure was exercised on witnesses. | ||
520 | |a Los testimonios orales y, especialmente los de los indígenas, fueron a menudo piezas clave en los juicios llevados a los Tribunales de Justicia de Hispanoamérica. En muchos casos también son las únicas fuentes disponibles para llegar a las voces indígenas en el archivo colonial. Se ha prestado poca atención a este tema a pesar de su centralidad para la comprensión no única-mente del sistema de justicia del Imperio español, sino también de los registros a partir de los cuales se construyen nuestras narrativas históricas. Este capítulo tiene como objetivo analizar la producción y uso de testimonios orales indígenas en la Corte del gobernador de Yucatán, así como su posterior valoración en el Consejo de Indias en la España del siglo XVI. Basándonos en el juicio relativo al transporte de tributos por los tamenes mayas (1573-1579), examinaremos cómo se seleccionaron los testigos y se tomaron sus declaraciones, y cómo se evaluaron esas pruebas en el tribunal. Se prestará especial atención a las formas en que se ejerció presión sobre los testigos. | ||
