Resumen
Por lo general, se cree que las tradiciones arquitectónicas indígenas finalizaron bruscamente con la invasión europea de las Américas. En los Andes, los especialistas piensan que la arquitectura inca cesó poco después de la llegada de los españoles y fue reemplazada de manera rápida por modelos europeos. En el presente artículo, la autora plantea que la percepción de la "muerte" de la arquitectura inca es un paradigma falso, cuyo origen se debe a varios factores, tal como la separación en disciplinas académicas, la ausencia de estudios calificados sobre arquitectura indígena posterior a la Conquista, y, sobre todo, las denominaciones modernas, que implican erróneas aseveraciones acerca del pasado. Los trabajos de investigación se concentran en Chinchero, la propiedad privada de Thupa ‘Inka, como un caso en el que se demuestra que la arquitectura inca siguió en existencia después de la invasión española.
"Neo-Inca" or Colonial? The Death of Inca Architecture and other ParadigmsMost indigenous architectural traditions are believed to have ended abruptly with the European invasion of the Americas. In the Andes, scholars have argued that Inca architecture ceased soon after the arrival of the Spaniards and was rapidly replaced with European models. In this paper, I argue that the perceived death of Inca architecture is a false paradigm based on a variety of factors, such as a split in scholarly disciplines, a lack of scholarship on indigenous post contact architecture, and —most importantly— naming practices that have carried mistaken assumptions about the past. Focusing on Chinchero, the private estate of Thupa ‘Inka, as a case study, this paper demonstrates that Inca architecture continued well after the Spanish invasion.
