Description
Summary:The narration of the event in the Cajamarca Square and the capture of the Inca Atahualpa by the Spaniards was reported in chronicles of the early colonial period. They constituted a representation of the facts that reinforced certain images about how the Spaniards had been able to impose their hegemony over the indigenous people. Within the narratives belonging to the Hispanic historiographical tradition, the moment when the Inca Atahualpa threw the book on the floor, acquired an important role in which the supposed political and also religious superiority of the conquerors was condensed, but also a sign of the existence of a misunderstanding about the meaning of the book on the part of the Inca. The aim of this article is to analyze the presence of other narratives about the event in Cajamarca and the role of the book, which can be partially identified as belonging to an indigenous historiographical tradition. The aim of this article is to problematize the relationship between the Spanish and indigenous historiographic tradition around a single event and the place that the existence of other narratives occupies.
