The Santa Fe province was characterized, from the half of the 19th century, to be a settlement of populations that migrated from different European countries. Women who lived there were from different origins: Italian, Spanish, Swiss, Lithuanian and Bielorussian. All of them had something in common, they were migrants and were subordinate to the commandments of men. The purpose of this article is historicizing the life experiences of immigrants women in the first Jewish colonies at Santa Fe northwest territory, organized by the Jewish Colonization Association and analyze how they had the ability to adapt to this space, transform it, how resisted and transgressed its tradition.
