This article presents unpublished documents recently found in the Arequipa Regional Archive, specifically an inventory of possessions and an auction of property belonging to doña Francisca Palla, who passed away in 1564. Based on these sources, some objects such as mates, qeros and cocos de plata are identified as elements having pre-hispanic roots in an early colonial context. Moreover, their circulation contexts are identified based on auctions in almoneda pública which therefore resulted in new ownership. Thus, these objects become part of new connections of circulation which will build new routes and new owners for these objects of prestige in the Colonial Southern Andes.
