What was the main reason the spanish Crown established the encomienda system?

How was the problem between Native Americans and settlers resolved?
Generally speaking Courts and Society said that you can kill Indians, charge to kill Indians (for fun) and Indians cannot kill you (it is unlawful for an Indian to kill a white man). These same institutions also said: You can move onto the land owned by Indians, and as long a you make claim to it, you become the owners of the land and Indian law no longer applies to that parcel of land (IE: Native law that you can kill a thief cannot be implemented). The end result of this is: American's could move onto Native American lands, kill Indians, claim the Indian is the aggressor and call for the government to wipe out the tribe - and that is resolution.

La's Cases believed that the Spanish were mistreating, exploiting, and in essence working the Indians to death.

Does Honduras break for siesta?
Actually that is a Spanish custom, which they took from the Arabs; the whole siesta thing, is largely nonexistent in Latin America. In Spain it exists, because the heat in the summer can become intolerable, it becomes much too hot to work. The reason Latin America does not have a siesta tradition, is the history of slavery; the Spanish overlods, the hacienda owners certainly took their afternoon siesta, however the peons kept on working, even in the heat of the sun. Because from the time the people of Latin America were peons, they were not in the habit of taking a break, even working under the brutal sun, that habit never developed. Again the siesta was the "privelege" of the Spaniards; I know that in Mexico, the rich Spanish descended families there, have that tradition, many upper class Mexicans do, the hacienda owners who descend from Spaniards that never went back. Honduras, like Mexico, northern South America, and Chile, most of the people's great grandparents only as recently as the 19th century, were all peons, basically slaves. Like I said because of that, the Spanish custom did not carry over, because they were not full blooded Spanish, they did not get a siesta break, they kept on working, the hacienda owners did not care how hot the sun was.

What were Mexican Indians jobs?
I believe you mean Amerindians or Native Americans. It depended on their specific tribes, as many of them such as the Tlaxcalans or the Tutul Xiu allied themselves with the Spanish conquistadors during their conquest of Mexico, winning recognition within the new society and keeping their lands from being snatched away by the arriving European settlers.The more fortunate kept their own lands and became the first hacienda owners during colonial times; more often than not, having interracial marriages with Europeans, breeding what is known today as the mestizo race.Less fortunate tribes became laborers within the encomienda system; basically becoming servants of hacienda owners. Most of them were exploited on plantations, mines and farms.The least fortunate, such as the Aztecs were almost exterminated by the invading European forces, enslaved and died within the first years of the colony, or exiled themselves to the most remote locations of the continent.
