Abstract
For families of conservative maps near the identity we prove the existence of open sets of parameters with persistence of homoclinic tangencies betwee n stable and unstable leaves of 'thick' horse-shoes. Such families are obta ined, for instance, by perturbing integrable Hamiltonian systems in R-2 wit h a rapidly periodic oscillatory term and then performing a slowing change in the time variable.
