Talk:Pachacuti
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I removed the following information to make the article tone a bit more encyclopedic:
- "Was he a good leader or a bad leader? Well every good thing comes with a prize tag."
- "Ok,let's say that Pachacuti did not have any social skills or he had no heart, (I don't know I never met the guy, but this is not the point."

The previous article seemed unsavably POV, but it's just commented out for now. --Zenyu 22:53, Dec 9, 2004 (UTC) These conquest maps are not accurate. I sort just guestimated the extent from looking at some other peoples maps. But when I went back and put in Chimor, and Chachapoyas I could see that I was off in the territory, esp in the Tupac Inca and Huayana Capac years. The map now on the Image:Inca-expansion.png map is more accurate. But that one does not have the other countries on it, so these maps need to be regenerated. (Also I learned that Pachacamac and Cajamarca were added to the empire between 1463 and 1471, the first was a breakaway republic from Chimor that joined the Inca to avoid reprisal from the Chimu, Cajamarca was a powerful city state that was simply no match for the Inca armies.) I'll fix this when I have the time to regenerate the maps... --Zenyu 20:58, Dec 19, 2004 (UTC) I believe that Pachacuti is the name of the political party run by Salazar in Cusco as well as the name of the Inca. Probably so few searches would be done for that, there is not point in disambiguation. Question: Is this Pachacuti the same person who had Machu Picchu built and other magnificent edifaces in the Cuzco area? This article is bad. This should be renamed to something like Pachakuti_(Inca) to refer to the Inca with the name... pachakuti itself means "world turned around" and is an Andean concept somewhat comparable to the changing yugas in Hinduism. The name has also been used by various indigenous movements in Bolivia and Peru. Murple 19:11, 2 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Confusing
I was wondering why it said in the first sentence of the third paragraph, "Meanwhile, Pachacuti reorganized the new empire..." In the last sentence of paragraph two it said, "Tupac Inca continued to conquer territiories to the north, reaching what is now Ecuador by his father's [that is Pachacuti's] death in 1471." The whole section seems rather confusing with too many subject changes from sentence to sentence for the number of pronouns that are used. 72.234.195.62 06:07, 10 April 2007 (UTC)Curious User
