It was used by the Spanish crown for slavery. The goal was to use Native Americans as a slave labor source. The encomienda system was a method by which the Spanish crown rewarded colonial settlers by entrusting them with a group of natives whom they would civilize and convert to Christianity, in return for gifts in the form of labor, taxes, or goods.
