964 CE to 1683 CE
The Lupaca, Lupaka, or Lupaqa people are one of the divisions of the ancestral Aymaras.
The Lupaca live for many centuries near Lake Titicaca in Peru and their lands possibly extend nto Bolivia.
The Lupaca and other Aymara peoples form powerful kingdoms after the collapse of Tihuanaco in the eleventh century.
In the mid fifteenth century they are conquered by the Inca Empire and in the 1530s come under the control of the Spanish Empire.
The residence of the pre-Inca kings of Lupaca is probably what is today the archaeological site of Kutimpu.
The capital of the Inca province is Chucuito, presently a village of the same name where the archaeological site of Inca Uyu is located.
