description The document presented here is the transcription of the repartition of indian workers (mita) for the year 1666 in the corregimiento of Cajamarca. One can perceive the high degree of rationalization of the economy through the distribution of manpower to face the drop of supply. This document raises questions about assumptions of the catastrophic fall of indigenous populations that often characterizes the XVIIth century in Peru. The weak registered drop in indigenous population seems to be due to migrations and to status modification rather than to increasing mortality among this population. As a result, a significant number of persons would not be registered as indians anymore.
