description | Inca warfare has been the subject of scholarly interest since the period of the Spanish conquest. Not only were the land and its peoples exotically diff erent from the Spanish interlopers but so were the many aspects of indigenous warfare. Th ough the indigenous population proved quick to adapt their methods and strategies to resist these foreign invaders, many of the underlying fundamentals took some time to adjust. Th is paper seeks to uncover both, aspects of the ideological framework which harnessed indigenous Andean strategies and tactics but also to present some of the more practical considerations with respect to territorial expansion, including how native strategy, tactics and beliefs fi rst developed and then adapted to the Spanish presence in the fi rst few decades of the conquest. |

La guerra inca ha sido objeto de interés intelectual desde el período de la conquista española. No solo porque la tierra y su gente eran exóticamente diferentes de los intrusos españoles, sino también sus muchos aspectos de la guerra indígena. Aunque la población indígena rápidamente adapto sus métodos y estrategias para resistir a estos invasores extranjeros, muchos de los fundamentos subyacentes tardaron en adaptarse. Este trabajo presentara algunos aspectos del marco ideológico que sustento las estrategias y tácticas indígenas andinas, mientras que igualmente describe algunas de las cuestiones más prácticas con respecto a la expansión territorial, incluyendo la forma en que las estrategias, tácticas y creencias nativas se desarrollaron y adaptaron a la presencia española en las primer décadas de la conquista.
