Abstract
This article studies various problems and processes such as indigenous mobility, bishopric displacement, the action of encomenderos, geography and how they participated in the political and territorial construction of the Kingdom of Chile at the beginning of the 17th century. All these elements will converge in 1626 when a diocesan synod was held in Santiago. The article argues that the entry of Huarpe Indians into the central zone of Chile promoted the construction of alternative spaces for political action, such as the synod, strengthening a model of polycentric administration of the monarchy.
