This approach provides a very complex perspective about these relationships given that both groups -Castilians and Indigenous peoples- acted in many diverse ways depending on the social, political, or economic context. In opposition to the traditionally prevailing idea of a constant hostile attitude between the two groups, we have ascertained a search for amity through pacific means among which commerce became a central piece
