description Does the nomad leave footprints in the colonial archive? Are those repositories useful as to follow their tract? This brief article aims to answer those questions by searching state and entrepreneurial archives after the relation between Argentinean and Chilean settlement, on the one hand, and indigenous and immigrant nomadism in southern Patagonia. In an era of imperial expantion and poscolonial colonialism, Argentina and Chile deployed efforts as to define their territorial sovereignty in mutual competition, while facing the endurance of social sovereignties defined by movement rather than stability. The indigenous peoples as well as the immigrant workers were contentious subjects for the settlement of state and capital. Here I analyze the form in which they appear, fugacious, in the archive of the local government, the judiciary and entrepreneurial, departing from the 2nd International Workshop “Formas de Hacer Historia hoy. América Latina: fuentes, conceptos y perspectivas de análisis”.
