existed in the following classes: Class Leader (made by royalty and nobility) and the dominated class (consisting of the People). ROYALTY
consisted of the Inca, the Coya and their children.
The Inca
He was on the cusp of Tahuantinsuyo. It was also called zapainca, single word meaning king.
His person was worthy of worship. For example, was born in litter throughout the empire together with a large number of servers, each time someone requested an audience with him, had to do with his head down, with a stone on his back in an attitude of reverence. Even when people learned that the Inca was approaching your area, ran to the foot of the hills and made the ritual of mocha, ie plucked eyebrows are a sign of reverence.
to the official list of all the Incas who ruled the Tahuantinsuyo was called "Capac Cuna", and was divided into two dynasties: Hurin Cusco (in Cusco) and Hanan Cuzco (High Cusco). It is believed that the Incas Hanan belonged to the group were important for all military and economic, while the Incas Hurin group devoted solely to the priestly activities. Here we see that dualism was also applied to the government to have two ruling Incas.
The Coya
was the lawful wife and sister "of the Inca ruler. It is important to note that the term "sister (o)" was used in prehispanic Peru to refer to all members of an ayllu, which was a non-nuclear extended family, they were the same age. English chroniclers misunderstood what was seen as the Coya as sister Inca direct. It was believed that she was the daughter of the Moon and representative of all women.
The Sons of Inca
received different names, so for example:
a) Pihuichuri: such was the legitimate children of the Inca.
b) Auqui: he was the heir to the throne. It had to be legitimate son of the Coya Inca and have great skills.
c) Ñusta: She was the daughter of the Inca that the marriage was called palla. NOBILITY
The Cuzco nobility lived in Panaca or ayllus organized real. Its members were bound together by ties of kinship, and their parents were the Incas both the deceased and those who were in power. There were three classes of nobles:
Blood Nobles, were the closest relatives of the Inca ruler. They lived in real ayllus panacas or were entitled to land, property and yanaconas. They wore heavy earrings as a badge, which made his ears grow longer than normal, hence the English were given the name "apricot."
Abvenedizos Nobles, were the chiefs and leaders of nations that were conquered and subjugated by the Incas.
Privilege Nobles, were people who had become in noble will of the Inca, as a reward due to a heroic action or because the conquered regions curacas.
male nobles enjoyed a number of privileges and occupied important administrative positions. Therefore, from a young age should undergo a training period in the yachayhuasi or house of learning, under the guidance of a teacher called amautas. The education of noble ceremony concluded with the Huarache after which the young nobles, were considered adults.
