Machuqolqa: de una aldea doméstica temporal a un centro de almacenaje inca
In world history, states often used propaganda to claim control over a contiguous territory. However, despite these assertions, state control was always discontinuous, that is, more intensive in some parts than in others.

| Sumario: | In world history, states often used propaganda to claim control over a contiguous territory. However, despite these assertions, state control was always discontinuous, that is, more intensive in some parts than in others. In the prehispanic Andes, Spanish colonial chronicles echoed Inca propaganda, repeating that the empire had continuous territorial control in the Cusco heartland. This article departs from that perspective and focuses on Machuqolqa, a small village first occupied between 1300 and 1400 AD with an intermittent and semi-mobile agropastoral occupation. Starting in the 15th century and throughout the Inca occupation, the site changed and included domestic structures in addition to food storage buildings, which were used to accumulate and then redistribute resources to local ethnic groups. This research will demonstrate how pre-existing groups at Machuqolqa and Raqchi, a nearby settlement, maintained a certain autonomy in the development of their economic and social activities despite being incorporated in the Inca empire. |
