Contarhuacho A Biography written by Helen Pugh and has been published by Helen Pugh this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on with Biography & Autobiography categories.
You may have heard of the Inca emperor Huayna Capac but probably not Contarhuacho (or Contarguacho), one of his many secondary wives. Born in Tocash in the province of Huaylas, Peru, in about 1500, Contarhuacho was a curaca or female cacique of great importance in her own right who played a significant role both before and after the Spanish Conquest. This short biography is a taster for a book I am planning entitled, ‘Biographies of Inca Women’. I would love to receive feedback on whether a book of that sort would be of interest to you and if so, which Inca women you would like me to include.

Most chapters also include a Quick Tribute section that briefly mentions other interesting women from the same century. Meet the woman who had two funerals. Meet the African princess who survived and thrived despite the odds. Meet the woman who voted... before it was legal. Meet the openly gay artists whose generosity touched their neighbours' hearts. Meet the queens and saints and "witches" and workers and much more! These are the unsung women of our county. This is the history of Somerset like never before.

Dive into a world of bold pre-Columbian women and goddesses! The book is my humble contribution to “herstory”- the history of women, the history of our foremothers, the women who made history yet were edited out of traditional textbooks. This is Inca history with the women edited back in, a book for anyone who is curious about historical women and ready to explore the world of powerful goddesses and strong Inca women, who lived before and during the Spanish Conquest. Well-researched historical reading that isn't heavy going. Praise for part 1: “I love the concept of this book." “An interesting and unique read!” “A really good read for anyone interested in how women can survive.” "The originality is refreshing- accessible, interesting books about the lives of Inca women and goddesses are hard to come by." Includes a discussion guide.
