This article analyzes the territorial occupation of the Indian people in Nueva Galicia during the second half of the 16th century and the 17th century. It basically seeks to demonstrate that during this period there was no regulation that specified the legal extension of land that had to be Granted to the Indian people in the great area under the jurisdiction of the Real Audience of Guadalajara. This absence contributed to a differentiated geographical occupation by the indigenous congregations according to their own ability to negotiate and the particular characteristics of the various provinces of Nueva Galicia.
