The encomienda system was established by Spanish conquistadors in the early 16th century, particularly under the reign of Queen Isabella I of Castile. It was implemented as a means to regulate Native American labor and tribute in the Spanish colonies, granting Spanish settlers the right to extract labor and resources from indigenous populations in exchange for protection and Christianization. Although not attributed to a single founder, it was formalized through royal decrees and practices by figures such as Christopher Columbus and later Spanish authorities.
The encomienda system significantly altered the lives of Amerindians by subjecting them to forced labor and eroding their autonomy. While it was intended to offer protection and Christianization in exchange for tribute, it often led to exploitation, harsh conditions, and a dramatic decline in their populations due to overwork and disease. This system disrupted traditional social structures and cultures, leading to long-lasting impacts on indigenous communities in the Americas. Ultimately, it facilitated Spanish colonial control and economic exploitation at the expense of the indigenous peoples.

Spaniards who received a trusteeship (encomendado) over native tribes were required to protect the natives from warring tribes and to instruct them in the Spanish language and in the Catholic faith.
