  • Inca Empire - History of the 14 Incas

    The Inca Empire, also known as Tahuantinsuyo, which means "the four regions or the four suyus," was the last and the greatest pre-Columbian empire in South America. This vast empire stretched along the Andes mountain range, covering territories of what are today Peru, Ecuador, Bolivia, Argentina, Chile, and Colombia. The empire's capital was Cusco, located in present-day Peru.

    Origins and Expansion of Inca Power

    The origin of the Inca Empire dates back to the 12th century, with the legendary founding of Cusco by Manco Cápac. It is believed that the Incas began as a small group that gradually expanded their influence, initially dominating neighboring peoples in the Cusco Valley and then extending their power through a combination of diplomacy, strategic marriages, and military conquests.

    Mayta Cápac

    Maita Cápac fou el quart inca del regne del Cusco, segons la tradició,[1] mort l'any 1156.[2] Segons quina siga la font, aquest inca va tenir un regnat important o poc significatiu. L'Inca Garcilaso li atribueix diverses accions d'armes, però Balbo a la seva Historia del Perú no li n'atribueix cap.[1]

Ja en el poder, al front d'un exèrcit de 12.000 combatents, reduí les tribus d'Hatunpacasa, trobant una seriosa resistència a Cacyaviri; posà setge als cacics o règuls que s'havien fortificat en un turó sagrat, i després d'una sèrie d'atacs a la fi aconseguí avançar amb tanta empenta, que els assetjats es veieren obligats a rendir-se, i d
