Tupac Amaru HOLOCAUST The May 18, 1781 , the main square of Cuzco was the scene of the execution of Jose Gabriel Condorcanqui , his family and top leaders of the libertarian revolution which marked the most important milestone in the history of national independence. Not in all the annals of barbarism , wrote the English historian Sir Clements Markham , a single document that matches in knavery and ferocious brutality at the sentence pronounced against the Túpac Amaru the Spanish José de Areche visitor . The horrendous condemns all atrocities , was carried out to the letter : First hanged Antonio Bastidas , Inca political brother , and three of his captains , with the other six convicted , put them in sacks that were used to pack or yerba mate from Paraguay and made horse dragged back to the center of the square Francisco , Inca uncle , a man of about eighty years since Tupac Amaru Hippolytus , lad of twenty , they started the tongue and the penalty was applied stick with iron screw , the first thing you saw in Cuzco. immediately Micaela was placed , the beloved and adored wife of the Inca , on the same scaffold; tongue was cut and in the presence of her husband tortured , the screw was placed around his neck , which he suffered horribly for having the neck too small and the screw does not fit well , seeing that in this way they could not stop to kill him, and put a loop tightly around his neck and pulled him, giving horrible kicked in the chest and stomach , and thus put an end to their suffering. El Inca rose at once to the little stage , he removed the shackles and handcuffs and tore the tongue , then he lay on the ground , is strongly tied wrists and ankles to the girths of four horses , making them simultaneously from different directions. When the body rose in the air, Fernando , the youngest son of Inca child ten- year-old who was forced to witness the sacrifice , gave a desperate cry , cry for many years impacted the hearts of all those present, increasing their hatred against the oppressors . was this cry the death sentence of Spanish domination in South America. But still not finished these horrors : the horses set off at the same instant , so that the maimed body you were still several moments of life , and finally, the cruel Areche , who witnessed the sacrifice from a window of the old school of the Jesuits, ordered his head cut off . a child passed Fernando is below tabladillo and sentenced to life imprisonment . Thus ended the earthly life of Condorcanqui , but not their projection , which is eternal . Well as I said in a sublime moment Alejandro Romualdo : They will want to dismember , crush stain , stomp , desalmarlo . They will want to fly and can not fly . They will want to break it and can not break it. They will want to kill him and can not kill him
