A History of the Inca is a historical podcast focusing on one of the largest empires in pre-columbian America. The Inca were the culmination of civilization in the Andes Mountains. The culture, government and society were unique when compared to other societies and have yet to truly be explored in the podcasting world.
In A History of the Inca, we will explore pre-Inca states and the hostile world they inhabited. We will learn of the Inca origins and how they were but one of many ethnic groups carving out a living miles above sea level. From their beginnings as a small ethnic group we will march with their armies as they set out to expand their rule over Andes. We dissect their administration and government while also looking at how ordinary people fared under the empire.
When seemingly at its height, the Inca see the Spanish arrive. And though some end the rule of the Inca with the Spanish conquistadores, there is much more to the story…

El abuso y explotación de las poblaciones indígenas en las Américas no pasó desapercibido. Con la bula papal emitida, Carlos V tuvo que abordar la situación. La solución: Las Nuevas Leyes. Si bien las leyes no fueron bien recibidas en Hispanoamérica, en ninguna parte provocaron una reacción más acalorada que en Peru.

Up until now the Viceroy's of Peru had their hands full with Inca revolts as well as rebellions from fellow Spaniards. With much of that in the past, the Junta Major wanted someone who could implement the changes they desired. They would select Francisco de Toledo and the Andes would never be the same.

Atahualpa-capturado, con los españoles masacrando a miles de sus hombres mientras corrían, aterrorizados por los caballos que los perseguían. El Inca nunca será el mismo.

Huayna Capac acaba de morir a causa de una misteriosa enfermedad que azota los Andes (posiblemente viruela o sarampión). La inesperada muerte del Sapa Inca y la desgraciada suerte de su probable heredero desemboca en una crisis sucesoria de la que emergen dos candidatos: Atahualpa y Huáscar. Exploraremos lo que sabemos de sus antecedentes, hasta este punto de la narración, antecedentes que seguirán teniendo consecuencias para los incas en las próximas décadas.

Hoy nos sumergimos en una vasta red religiosa. El Sistema de Ceques de Cuzco era un sistema de huacas que irradiaban desde el lugar más sagrado del imperio. En este episodio discutimos cómo estaba organizado el sistema y cómo se llevaban a cabo ciertos rituales. También caminamos varias líneas de ceques, visitando algunas de las huacas. Finalmente, exploramos cómo ha cambiado el sistema con el tiempo y observamos otros sistemas similares en los Andes.

Collasuyu ahora estaba firmemente de vuelta en el control Inca. Mientras estaba en las orillas del lago Titicaca, Tupac debe haber mirado el gran lago y las islas en la distancia. Aquí nació Inti; donde nació Quilla (la Luna). Había oído que tres lugares de nacimiento estaban consagrados en esas islas. Y así el Sapa Inca abordó una barca de totora y se embarcó a la Isla del Sol.

Con Pachacuti con su padre Inti, Tupac Inca Yupanqui ahora se pone la franja como Sapa Inca. Sin embargo, pronto recibe la noticia de que la noticia de la muerte de su padre se ha extendido a varias partes del imperio. Lo peor de todo es que está en el rincón más oscuro del imperio, en las selvas de Andesuyu.

Huayna Capac has just died from a mysterious disease that is sweeping the Andes (possibly Smallpox or Measels). The unexpected death of the Sapa Inca and the unfortunate fate of his likely heir leads to a succession crisis from which two candidates emerge: Atahualpa and Huascar. We’ll explore what we know of their background, up to this point in the narrative, a background which will continue to have consequences for the Inca for decades to come.

In this episode we take a step away from the narrative to discuss how diseases brought to the Americas from overseas impacted the native population. Spoiler: it was very bad. This is one of the first impacts of colonialism that the Inca felt and no matter who you were, it had an impact on you.

But there are those who seek to unseat the young Inca, many from his own family. How will the Young Ruler combat the conspiracies against his life and oversee the empire?

Con el imperio en rápida expansión, vamos a tomarnos un tiempo para abordar lo que estaba sucediendo más allá de la conquista de la tierra por parte de Tupac. Tupac también estaba construyendo. Bajo su mandato se construyeron haciendas, edificios administrativos, caminos y coricanchas. Sin embargo, también supervisó algunos de los usos más expansivos del reasentamiento en los Andes con el uso del sistema mitmae. Finalmente, regresaremos a nuestra narrativa para ver cómo dos grupos vecinos recibieron un trato muy diferente por parte de los incas.

A finales del siglo XV, había un imperio en la costa norte del actual Perú: el Imperio Chimor. Los Chimú hicieron su hogar en el Valle de Moche, la cultura que había habitado el área más de 500 años antes. En la seca costa occidental del continente, los chimú pudieron crear un próspero imperio que controlaba el comercio y fabricaba exquisitos trabajos en oro. Si no hubiera sido por cierto Inca que bajaba de los Andes, es posible que este podcast tuviera otro título.

No es que hayamos cubierto el ejército y el sistema de carreteras que lo transportaría, nos unimos a Tupac Inca Yupanqui mientras marcha hacia el norte. Durante sus campañas someterá a grupos tanto por medios diplomáticos como militares. Se enfrentará a grupos en Cajamarca, una confederación cerca de Quito y un grupo cultural feroz cerca de la actual Quayaquil. Para colmo, Tupac se embarca en un viaje en barco… tal vez.

La logística a menudo se puede pasar por alto cuando uno piensa en grandes ejércitos o hazañas militares. Sin embargo, llevar un ejército de un lugar a otro es a veces una hazaña en sí mismo. Especialmente, cuando el ejército supera los 100.000, marchando a través de montañas en una tierra donde la temporada agrícola era extremadamente impredecible.
Sin embargo, los incas crearon uno de los mejores sistemas de carreteras de cualquier civilización del mundo en ese momento. Por supuesto, adaptaron algunos caminos de los Wari y otros grupos, pero el Inca crearía un camino y un sistema de abastecimiento que se extendía desde el norte de Chile hasta Quito. Fue tanto su logística como su número lo que haría a Tupac Inca Yupanqui.

Women have often been left on the sidelines or out of historical accounts all together. When it comes to accounts about the Inca, the situation is very much the same. However, Helen Pugh has worked to change that. Helen is the author of Intrepid Dudettes of the Inca Empire and her book explores various women throughout the time and space within the Inca Empire. In this episode, I sit down with Helen to discuss her book and the women who lived through incredible events.

Maize, or corn, is grown all over the globe. But it wasn’t always this way. This plant has its origins in southern modern-day Mexico, with its parents being teosinte and tripsacum. But the off-spring of these two parent plants was quite different than the maize we know and love today, much different. In this episode we take a brief look at how maize we know today became what it is. And of course, the Andes have their role to play.

The Inca and their predecessors did not use writing as they governed. However, there were khipus. Made of woven string and linked together with various knots, the decipherment of khipus is still a work in progress. In this episode we will discuss what we know so far about the khipus and discuss how researchers have interpreted specific cases. If unlocked, the khipus can reveal a lot about what was happening within Tawantinsuyu.

In this episode we discuss how the system was organized and how certain rituals were carried out. We also walk several ceque lines ourselves, visiting some of the huacas. Finally, we explore how the system has changed over time and look at other such systems in the Andes.

Pachacutec ha vuelto de sus campañas. Ha traído varios grupos bajo el dominio Inca y numerosos botines a Cuzco. Pero Cuzco, a los ojos de Pachacutec, era inadecuado. Se encontraba esencialmente en un pantano, sus edificios eran de madera y carecía de la gloria que Pachacutec sabía que se merecía. Así, reconstruiría el Ombligo del Universo en la capital más grande de todos los Andes.

En este episodio echamos un vistazo a la evidencia arqueológica que rodea el ascenso de los incas desde sus inicios como cacicazgo hasta un estado solidificado en uno de los muchos valles de los Andes. En el camino, fueron rodeados por otros grupos, expandieron su base agrícola, formaron alianzas y sometieron enemigos. En contraste con lo que se describe en muchos de los relatos, los incas eran un estado estable en el momento del ascenso al poder de Pachacuti.

Tupac Inca Yupanqui must deal with one final rebellion, this time out on the coast. The rebellion is so difficult that the Sapa Inca must ask assistance from a council of huacas. He later builds an estate at Chinchero. Tupac will retire to his estate as his health declines. Before he joins his father, Inti, Tupac calls the nobles to his side along with his son: Titu Cusi Yupanqui.

Collasuyu was now firmly back in Inca control. While on the banks of Lake Titicaca, Tupac must have looked upon the great lake and at the islands in the distance. This is where Inti was born; where Quilla (the Moon) was born. He had heard that thrie birthplaces were enshrined on those islands. And so the Sapa Inca boarded a reed boat and embarked to the Island of the Sun.

En este episodio veremos la primera de las cuatro sociedades andinas que existieron antes del Inca, los Moche.
Los Moche fueron una cultura que habitó la costa norte del Perú hasta alrededor de los años 800 después de Cristo. Hay mucho sobre esta sociedad que no conocemos, pero discutiremos su posible estructura administrativa, ceremonias y el camino hacia su desaparición. Aunque esta zona está más relacionada con el estado Chimú posterior que con el Inca, este episodio cubrirá varios temas (huacas, sacrificio, vida costera y proliferación religiosa) a los que nos referiremos una y otra vez.

With the empire quickly expanding, we're going to take some time to touch on what was happening beyond just Tupac conquering land. Tupac was also building. Estates, administration buildings, roads and coricanchas were all built under his watch. However, he also oversaw some of the most expansive use of resettlement in the Andes with the use of the mitmae system. Finally, we'll return to our narrative to see how two neighboring groups received vastly different treatment from the Inca.

Late in the 15th century, there was an empire on the Northern coast of modern-day Peru: The Chimor Empire. The Chimu made their home in the Moche Valley, the culture who had inhabited the area over 500yrs prior. On the dry western coast of the continent, the Chimu were able to create a thriving empire that controlled trade and made exquisite works of gold. If it hadn’t been for a certain Inca who was coming down from the Andes, it is possible that this podcast would have a different title.

Logistics can be often overlooked when one thinks of great armies or military feats. However, getting an army from one place to another is sometimes a feat in itself. Especially, when the army is in over pushing 100,000, marching through mountains in a land where the agricultural season was extremely unpredictable.
However the Inca created one of the best road systems of any civilization in the world at that time. Of course they adapted some roads from the Wari and other groups, but the Inca would create a road way and supply system that stretched from northern Chile to Quito. It was their logistics as much as it was their numbers which would make Tupac Inca Yupanqui.

Welcome to Tales of the Andes! Fictional stories based on real events, places, ceremonies and people in and around the Andes. Tales of the Andes allows me to do some creative writing and bring the narrative to life with immersive sound and experiences.
Pachacuti has been getting up there in years. He can still administer his empire from Cuzco, but he can no longer go on campaign. When a rebellion breaks out in Collasuyu he can’t march with his army to put the rebels in his place. Instead, Pachacuti must rely on his sons to go and put out the rebellion. All the while, he is pressed by the Inca nobility to name an heir and one of the top candidates just marched south on the dangerous mission to quell the rebellion.

Today we have an interview with my friend Stephen Berquist. Stephen is an archaeologist finishing up his PhD at the University of Toronto. During the interview we discuss the site Stephen worked on, Tecapa, which sits on the northern Peruvian coast. We also discuss the Wari, empires, the Inca and a group we'll investigate more in the fall: The Chimu.

Pachacuti has been Sapa Inca for quite some time. He has expanded the state and has transformed the religion of the Inca. Now it is time for him to disseminate laws to those he now governs.
Inti Raymi was the Celebration of the Sun! A yearly festival that took place around the Winter Solstice. Today, we’ll go through the ritual as explained to us by Cristobal de Molina. By exploring this ritual and others in the future, you will gain a new appreciation for how thought out and involved these ceremonies and celebrations were.

Episode 17: The Inca Pantheon
Today we wade into the world of Inca religion. We’ve touched on the subject before, but it is important to understand the broad scope of the religion as it played a key part of not only the administration, but the everyday lives of the people. We’ll touch on the Gods, huacas, and the sacrifices made to them. Rituals we may cover another day.

You may have heard of El Dorado, the mythical city made of gold. Countless explorers have ventured out to look for it, many never returned. At this point, with much of the world having been explored and mapped, we know, that El Dorado doesn’t exist...right? What if I told you that it did exist, but it wasn’t a city. If there ever was an El Dorado, it existed in a single building: The Coricancha

We leave the narrative behind to embark on investigating different aspects of Inca life, rule and culture. To begin, we look at one of the wonders of the Inca empire: Sacsahuaman. This building was a fort, religious center and storage facility. It is also the largest megalithic structure in North America! Who built it? And more importantly how was it built? Press play to find out.

Episode 14: (Re)building Cuzco
Pachacuti has returned from his campaigns. He has brought several groups under Inca rule and numerous spoils to Cuzco. But Cuzco, in Pachacuti’s eyes was inadequate. It sat in essentially a swamp, it’s buildings were of wood and it lacked the glory that Pachacuti knew it deserved. Thus, he would rebuild the Navel of the Universe into the greatest capital in all of the Andes.

Pachacuti is now Sapa Inca but he wonders just how stable his young empire is. He seeks to bring his allies in line and firmly under Inca control. Pachacuti then marches out in all directions to see what could be conquered.

Happy Holidays Everyone! After hearing this interview on a local radio station I wanted to share it with you all. At first I was saving it for a time when I fell behind on the podcast, but that hasn’t happened yet, and I wanted to share this interview while it is still relatively recent. The interview is about a professor who worked for years to repatriate an Inca mummy back to Bolivia. Enjoy the episode and have a great and safe Holiday!

In this episode we take a look at the archaeological evidence surrounding the rise of the Inca from their beginnings as a chiefdom to a solidified state in one of the many valleys in the Andes. Along the way, they were hemmed in by other groups, expanded their agricultural base, formed alliances and subdued enemies. In contrast to what is described in many of the accounts, the Inca were a stable state by the time of Pachacuti’s rise to power.

How do we have accounts of the Inca origins when they didn’t have a writing system? In this episode we step away from the narrative to discuss our sources. Spanish Chroniclers, Indigenous Accounts, Archaeological research and Ethno-Historical accounts will all be used for the show going forward. We discuss the pros and cons to some of these sources because (Surprise!) accounts by the conquerors and conquered carry some bias with them.

The Inca emerge from their caves and embark on a quest led by Ayar Manco to find fertile land. Sent by the Creator god himself, Viracocha, the Inca found the city of Cuzco. Here the Inca must carve out a piece of territory for themselves as we have seen other civilizations before them accomplish. Leaders will rise and fall. Plots will be made and others foiled.

Episode 6: The Wari
We return back to Peru and analyze the mysterious Wari. The Wari and their ancestors are credited with spreading terrace farming throughout much of the Andes. They have also had a hand in influencing the Moche, Nasca and Tiwanaku. So who were they and what is the legacy they left? Were they the first empire in the Andes? Listen to find out.

Today we head even further south and into the Andes themselves. Situated between the Cordillera Blanca and the Cordillera Negra is the Altiplano, a high plateau that sits within the borders of modern day Peru, Bolivia and Chile. On that plateau sits the world's highest navigable lake: Lake Titicaca. On the shores of rose a city that would come to dominate the Altiplano and the southern Andes: Tiwanaku.

Episode 4: The Nasca
Welcome once again to A History of the Inca. This time we explore one of the most well known groups that inhabited, not only what is now Peru, but all of South America, the Nasca. Sure, you know about their lines on the desert, but these people were much doing much more than drawing images. They lived in the Atacama Desert, the driest on Earth! How, did they not only live, but have a thriving culture in such a harsh corner of the world? Tune in to find out.

Welcome once again to A History of the Inca!
In this episode we will be looking at the first of four Andean societies that existed prior to the Inca, the Moche.
The Moche were a culture that inhabited the north coast of Peru until around 800 AD. There is much about this society that we don’t know, but we will be discussing their possible administration structure, ceremonies and the road to their demise. Though this area is related more to the later Chimu state than the Inca, this episode will cover several topics (huacas, sacrifice, coastal life and religious proliferation) that we will refer back to again and again.

This time we are getting the lay of the land. Literally. First we, discuss the geography, dominated by the imposing Andes. Next, we tackle the climate and explain how El Nino and other natural events can cause havoc.
Resources such as food, water and materials are discussed briefly. Finally, we talk about how the native people were able to adapt to the harsh environment and how they formed unique family units called ayllus.

This is a brand new podcast covering the history of the Inca Empire. After, listening to other podcasts and seeing what was out there I noticed that coverage of this area of history had hardly been covered.
This episode will introduce the host, the format of the show and the schedule. I touch on what to expect for the first few episodes and what I plan on covering in later episodes. I am really looking forward to starting this adventure with you!
