About: Cacicazgo

An Entity of Type: surname, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Cacicazgo is a phonetic Spanish transliteration (or a derivative) of the Taíno word for the lands ruled by a cacique. The Spanish colonial system recognized indigenous elites as nobles in Mexico and Peru, and other areas. Nobles could entail their estates, which were called cacicazgos on the model of Spanish entailed estates, or mayorazgos. This term is found in contexts such as "la princesa de Cofachiqui, señora de un cacigazgo indígena"[1] or, for example: "In November of 1493, the island of Boriquén had approximately 20 cacigazgos." According to Spanish chronicles, the cacique was at the apex of the Taíno feudal structure. Bartolomé de las Casas refers to these cacigazgos as kingdoms.

  • El terme cacicat s'aplica, en antropologia social, a un dels estadis d'evolució organitzativa de les societats tribals, concretament al més avançat d'ells, "que anuncia la forma estatal en les seves complexitats". És una forma d'organització molt típica dels clans de Polinèsia i Micronèsia, encara que també s'ha trobat sovint a Àsia Central, als bantu d'Àfrica, Carib i entre tots els d'Amèrica (ca)
  • Cacicazgo is a phonetic Spanish transliteration (or a derivative) of the Taíno word for the lands ruled by a cacique.

According to Spanish chronicles, the cacique was at the apex of the Taíno feudal structure. Bartolomé de las Casas refers to these cacigazgos as kingdoms. Many individual cacicazgos have been studied in colonial Mexico, showing that entailment was a successful means to preserve noble indigenous resources as the situation for commoners declined. There are cases where Spaniards married into cacique families, thereby giving them access to indigenous resources. In the Archivo General de la Nación, Mexico, a whole section of records, called Vínculos, is devoted to individual noble entailments. A collection of them was published in 1961. Cacicazgos survived into the nineteenth century. Conflicts over inheritance were common, and the litigants' arguments found in these cases form the basis for understanding some of the dynamics of the institution. Over time, the concept of cacique shifted, with some women attaining the title of cacica. Cacicazgo likewise underwent some transformation during the colonial era in Mexico. "By law, a cacique was a single heir and possessor of a cacicazgo estate, which always included land and often a subject labor force to work it. The Indians themselves, however, saw things differently, and by late colonial times it was not unusual for all the sons and daughters of a cacique (or cacica) to adopt the title. How and why this change took place, its chronology, and what it meant for local community organization remain imperfectly understood...The late colonial setting was vastly different, and indigenous noble claims of the period must be understood in the context in which they arose."

  • El término cacicato se aplica, en antropología social, a uno de los estadios de evolución organizativa de las sociedades tribales, concretamente al más avanzado de ellos, "que anuncia la forma estatal en sus complejidades".​ Es una forma de organización muy típica de los clanes de Polinesia y Micronesia, aunque también se ha encontrado frecuentemente en Asia Central, entre los bantúes en África, en el Caribe y, en general, en todas las Americas (es)
  • Cacicazgo adalah istilah yang mengacu kepada wilayah yang dikuasai oleh seorang cacique, yaitu kepala suku Taíno di Karibia. Bartolomé de las Casas menyamakan cacigazgos dengan "kerajaan", sementara ada pula yang membandingkan istilah ini dengan chiefdom atau negeri. Di Pulau Hispaniola pada masa kedatangan Kristoforus Kolumbus, terdapat lima cacicazgos, yaitu , , , Jaragua, dan . Seiring dengan penjajahan Spanyol di Benua Amerika, istilah cacique dan cacicazgo juga mulai digunakan dalam konteks lain di luar Karibia. Misalnya, sistem penjajahan Spanyol mengakui elit-elit pribumi seperti bangsawan-bangsawan di Meksiko dan Peru. Bangsawan-bangsawan ini dapat mempertahankan tanah mereka yang disebut cacicazgos. (in)
