During the Inca conquest of the northern region of the Andes, Tupac Yupanqui and his troops encountered the Cañari people. The resistance of this group was, however, temporary because soon the Incas annexed them to the Incario, resulting in important changes in their social and political conditions. A central event that took place during this process was the birth in Cañari lands of Huayna Capac, future hierarch of Tahuantinsuyo, precisely in the place called Tomebamba by the Incas. During the Huayna Capac´s rule, the Cañari region was not only under Inca control but also became an important military outpost for further Inca expansion to the north. With the death of Huayna Capac, however, the civil war between his two sons, Huáscar and Atahualpa, is precipitated, generating a dramatic scenario for the Cañaris. The consequences of this fact are clearly manifested upon the arrival of the Spaniards, when the Cañari chose to support the newcomers, being identified by them as “friendly Indians“, a fundamental role that marked the favorable conditions that the Cañari would have in the new order. This thesis seeks to establish the changes that took place in the Cañari people as a result of the Inca and Spanish conquests.
