GONZALEZ MORA, Felipe. Las posesiones rurales anexadas al colegio de la Compañía de Jesús en Mompox, Bolívar, 1643-1767. Apuntes [online]. 2012, vol.25, n.2, pp.322-333. ISSN 1657-9763.

In this text, the history of rural possessions belonging to the Mompox school in 1767 is developed, according to information found in the manuscript "Mompox School, extract from the edicts of its occupation, 2^nd of July 1767", document that is nowadays under custody of the Historic National Archives in Madrid, Spain. The manuscript offers a detailed list of the different estates, their acquisition due to donations, purchases or exchanges, their geographical location, their primarily economic vocation, their spatial components and architectural program. It also provides a list of the slaves employed in the estates, the tools or utensils, animals and stables. This study enables the verification of a regional spatial articulation between the Jesuit school located in the central area of the town of Santa Cruz de Mompox, and its rural possessions -important rural productive enclaves that represented the authentic economical support for the school-, strategically located throughout the course of the Magdalena river.

Keywords : Jesuits in Mompox; Mompox History century XVIII; Jesuitic architecture; Bolivar's history (Colombia).
