【 摘 要 】

Colonial Indian silversmiths have been barely studied by researchers. Not only from the social point of view, but also from the economic and technological ones. Perhaps the lack of interest lies in the scarce information about these artisans in the Colonial documents found so far, besides that it is almost impossible to identify the objects manufactured by these specialists due to the lack of signature on the objects. In this paper, we intend to show through the use of historical documents and archaeological studies, how these Indian silversmiths look for a place in the new society after the European Conquest, and how they were incorporated due to their skills and ability as silverware artisans.
