letra de atahualpa indian - sergio umbria

he was the son of huayna cápac and tocto coca, who was the granddaughter of
inca pachacútec, therefore a member of the powerful panaca
hatun ayllu. he was born in cusco, but since he was a child he lived in
tumibamba and quito accompanying his father in the northern campaigns

as a young man he showed courage, intelligence and charisma, which is why he
he became one of the favorite sons of the sapan inca; loved
in addition, by the northern n0bility and the main generals of the region
when huayna cápac and his successor ninan coyuchi died in 1528

willac umu, high priest of the sun, delivered the mascaypacha
red to huáscar, considering that he was the son of a coya or woman
major. atahualpa accepted such a decision and only asked the new
inca will be designated as incap rantin, that is, his representative
in tumibamba

it is known that there were sectors of the n0bility that were very dissatisfied with the
appointment of huáscar considering that he did not have sufficient merits
and fearing his reformist plans that would harm the privileges
traditional panacas (ayllus reales)

in 1529 the inca discovered the conspiracy of his brother cusi atauchi to
who gave cruel death along with many n0bles accused of supporting him
the executed orejones were prestigious members of the hanan saya
cusco, a faction that distanced itself from the inca and continued conspiring, promoting
a rebellion that overthrew huáscar

huáscar seeking to affirm his power and eliminate his potential rivals, demanded the
presence of all his paternal brothers in cusco with the
pretext for the arrival of the mallqui (mummy) of huayna
cápac to the imperial capital. the apricots, mitimaes, curacas and
generals from tumibamba and quito advised atahualpa not to attend because

his life was in danger in cusco. then atahualpa sent two
delegations justifying his absence and swearing obedience to the
inca, however, he murdered some and tortured others, accusing them
of being part of a rebellion that was preparing in the north of the empire

the inca n0bility of quito and tumibamba convinced atahualpa that the
the only way out was total war against huáscar. a great army was prepared
directed by the yana-generals quisquis, calcuchímac and rumiñahui, and
he performed a great ceremony to place a red mask
recognizing it

as the new sovereign of tahuantinsuyo. the war was
declared and would bring dire consequences for the empire
of the incas. atahualpa, from his apartments in the llaqta de
cajamarca, celebrated the resounding victories of its
troops in the south. considering himself invincible, those days of
november 1532

he allowed some bearded foreigners, who came by
the coasts of tumbes, will enter the northern sierra and
they interviewed him: they were the spaniards. in the baths of
pultumarca, was the first encounter between hispanics and the new inca
hernando pizarro convinced atahualpa to attend a
lunch and interview with his brother francisco pizarro, promising
return the goods that had been taken without authorization

on november 16, 1532, the inca attended the plaza de cajamarca
accompanied by an impressive procession of 8 thousand people
but only with 200 warriors with clubs and ropes to k!ll the
bearded men who insolently posed as envoys
of the god wiracocha and supporters of huáscar. at sunset of that day
in the square, the

spanish priest vicente valverde demanded his conversion from the inca
to the catholic religion and his submission to the authority of the king of
spain. atahualpa rejected that “requirement” for which the
invading forces made a surprise attack with
firearms, horses and swords. a horrendous thing happened
massacre that caused the

less than 4000 dead, in the midst of which the inca was kidnapped and taken to the
amaruhuasi, where he would endure a captivity of eight months
learning of the foreigners’ greed for precious metals, the
inca offered a fabulous ransom of a room full of gold and two of silver
for his life and liberty. many llaqtas (cities)

temples and palaces of tahuantinsuyo were dilapidated to fulfill
with the agreement; however, the spanish divided up the booty and
they prepared the death of the inca. the instigations of diego de almagro
the indian felipillo and the priest vicente valverde they obtained the sentence of
death for the inca. the charges against him

they considered the andean uses and customs; actually were
pretexts to eliminate it quickly
