Os curacas nas crônicas de Felipe Guaman Poma de Ayala e Inca Garcilaso de la Vega

Abstract

In the history of the Andes, the curacas were responsible for the command of the various local ethnic groups. They fulfilled duties that ranged from religious rituals to war. In the present work, we have carried out a study of the representations of the curacas contained in two chronicles written by Peruvian authors in the early seventeenth century: The Nueva Crónica y Buen Gobierno (1616), by Felipe Guaman Poma de Ayala, and the Comentarios Reales (1609- 1617), by Inca Garcilaso de la Vega. We have performed a systematic study, taking into account every direct or non-direct mention of the curacas in both chronicles, siding them with the historiographic material on the curacas. With the historiographic contribution, we have been able to contemplate the dimensions of the role of the native leaders of Peru registered in several other sources besides the chronicles. Far from mere middlemen, the curacas acted in the Andes so as to guarantee their own interests and legitimize their positions, as attested by the example of Guaman Poma himself.

Na história dos Andes, o comando das diversas etnias locais coube aos curacas, ou caciques andinos, que exerciam funções que variavam do ritual religioso à guerra. No presente trabalho, realizamos um estudo das representações dos curacas contidas em duas crônicas de autores peruanos concluídas no princípio do século XVII: a Nueva Crónica y Buen Gobierno (1616), de Felipe Guaman Poma de Ayala, e os Comentarios Reales (1609, 1617), de Inca Garcilaso de la Vega. Fizemos um estudo sistemático, levando em conta todas as menções diretas ou indiretas dos curacas nas duas crônicas, cotejando-as com o material historiográfico sobre os curacas. Com o aporte da historiografia, podemos vislumbrar as dimensões do protagonismo das lideranças nativas do Peru registradas em diversas outras fontes alheias às crônicas. Longe de meros intermediários, os curacas agiram nos Andes de modo a garantir seus interesses e legitimar suas posições, como atesta o exemplo do próprio Guaman Poma.
