RESUMEN: Se reconstruye la estructura de ingresos y gastos de la tesorería Real de Córdoba entre 1800 y 1810 a partir de la consulta de los libros mayores y manuales de contabilidad de Real Hacienda. Se busca reconstruir los principales ítems de recaudación y gastos, distinguiendo los recursos genuinos locales de las entradas por transferencias y ramos ajenos a la Real Hacienda, así como a la diversificación de imposiciones durante el período y la evolución de los volúmenes percibidos por los diferentes tipos de gravámenes y diversos tipos de gastos. Se presta especial atención a la gestión del situado que en su trayecto hacia Buenos Aires desde Potosí atravesaba la jurisdicción cordobesa y cómo el uso de estos fondos resultó particularmente problemático en la coyuntura de los años 1806/1807, permitiendo ampliar el manejo de fondos por parte de la tesorería de Córdoba. / ABSTRACT: The structure of the income and expenditure of the Royal Treasury of Córdoba between 1800 and 1810 is reconstructed by consulting the accounting books of the Royal Treasury. We try to reconstruct the main items of revenue and expenditure, distinguishing the genuine local resources from the income from transfers and branches outside the Royal Treasury, as well as the diversification of taxes during the period and the evolution of the volumes of incomes and expenditure. Special attention is paid to the management of the situado, which crossed the Cordovan jurisdiction on its way from Potosí to Buenos Aires, and how the use of these funds was particularly problematic in the period 1806/1807, which allowed the management of funds by the Cordovan treasury to be expanded.
