It was one of the biggest, most important, impressive and spectacular festivities that the Tahuantisuyo empire carried out, in which tribute was paid to the sun.

The "God" to whom tribute was paid was: "Apu Inti" (Sun God) or "Apu P'unchau" (Day God). This tradition was maintained even after colonization and the Incas continued to celebrate it behind the scenes of the Spanish. Even in the tradition, parties are held that pay tribute to the sun.
The subjects of the Inca continued to celebrate the festival hidden from the Spanish authorities, and a mestizo named Garcilaso de la Vega compiled, in his famous Royal Comments, descriptions of this unique and incomparable festival.Ariel Vilañez 10 mo A
