Sumario:This article discusses the only Inca noble ayllu founded in the Audience of Quito, on the royal estate of Atahuallpa Ticci Cápac, the last Inca emperor of Tahuantinsuyo (the Inca Empire). These lands were inherited by his eldest son, Francisco Topatauchi, the auqui (noble gentleman). The property was located at Cuturiví and Isinchi in the village of Pujilí, 25 km in a straight line from the Quilotoa volcano lagoon, which, in turn, is 21 km from the Inca archaeological ruins of Malqui-Machay that were discovered in 2004 and 2010. According to hypotheses based on ethnohistorical evidence, Malqui-Machay may be the emblematic site where the Quito Inca resistance against the Spanish conquerors brought Atahuallpa’s mortal remains.
