SUMMARY:

This thesis aims to analyze through historical speeches made by the Maia indigenous elite what may have motivated them to rewrite their past during the colonial period. Reflecting at this we will use two Maia documents produced during the colonial period: the Totonicapan title and Sololá Memorial, the first one written by the k’iche lineage and the second by the kaqchikel lineage. Thinking about that and at the transformation in the indigenous discourse, given that he was attached to the power. Our initial hypothesis is that these documents were not only wore used to reassert the existence of these natives but also as a way to preserve their ethical identity as well the government lineage in power. Besides, we believe that they also served as a tool to probate land ownership.
