The Encomienda system is a system of tributary labor established in Spanish America. It was developed as a means of securing an adequate and cheap labor supply. The Encomienda was first used in the Moors of Spain and later was taken to the New World.
Spainâs American Colonies and the Encomienda System: In the 1500âs, Spain systematically conquered parts of North, Central and South America as well as the Caribbean. With native governments such as the efficient Inca Empire in ruins, the Spanish conquistadors needed to find a way to rule their new subjects.nder the encomienda system, prominent Spaniards were entrusted with native communities. In exchange for native labor and tribute, the Spanish lord would provide protection and education. In reality, however, the encomienda system was thinly-masked slavery and led to some of the worst horrors of the colonial era.
