Abstract
El presente trabajo tuvo como finalidad el desarrollo de la elite indígena trujillana en las postrimerías del periodo colonial, a partir del caso de los Azabache y Mora Chimo durante los años de 1800 a 1820, en un contexto donde la institución del cacicazgo fue destruida. Asimismo, recurrimos al análisis de fuentes primarias de secciones de Protocolos Notariales, Intendencia y Corregimientos que se encuentran en el repositorio documental del Archivo Regional de La Libertad y fuentes secundarias. Asimismo, el linaje de los Azabache es una familia que domino el cacicazgo de Santa Lucía Moche hasta el final de la institución, siendo una familia numerosa que buscó continuar en el cargo mediante alianzas matrimoniales para seguir teniendo los privilegios que les daba ser descendientes de caciques. Además, se estudió la familia Mora Chimo, quien se originó mediante la unión de dos linajes de Mansiche y Chicama continuando en el dominio del cargo de cacique hasta la crisis de legitimidad que tienen en el siglo XVIII producto de los abusos que cometían las autoridades españolas con los indígenas.
ABSTRACT The present work was aimed at the development of the indigenous Trujillo elite in the late colonial period, from the case of the Azabache and Mora Chimo during the years from 1800 to 1820 in a context where the institution of chiefdom was destroyed. Likewise, we resorted to the analysis of primary sources of sections of Notarial Protocols, Intendance and Corregimientos that are in the documentary repository of the Regional Archive of La Libertad, and secondary sources. Likewise, the Azabache lineage is a family that dominated the chiefdom of Santa Lucía Moche until the end of the institution, being a large family that sought to continue in office through marriage alliances to continue having the privileges that being descendants of chiefs gave them. In addition, the Mora Chimo family was studied, which originated through the union of two lineages of Mansiche and Chicama, continuing in the domain of the position of cacique until the legitimacy crisis they had in the 18th century as a result of the abuses committed by the Spanish authorities with the natives.
