In this episode of The Story of Peru, Lucas and Luna explore the overlooked role of the yanacona — a class of lifelong retainers in the Inca Empire who served the Sapa Inca and the nobility. Unlike commoners bound to ayllu and mita obligations, yanacona were detached from their kin groups, often working in households, estates, or religious sites. After the Spanish conquest, many yanacona adapted by becoming servants or laborers for the new colonizers, sometimes gaining privileges or protections that other indigenous people lacked. The conversation covers the origins of the yanacona under Pachacuti, their status as 'servants of the Inca,' and how their ambiguous position allowed some to survive the demographic collapse of the 16th century. Lucas also discusses the scholarly debate over whether yanacona were a truly separate class or a flexible category. Specific examples include the yanacona who served Huayna Cápac and those who worked on the construction of Sacsayhuamán. The episode ends with a reflection on how social fluidity in the Inca world shaped colonial outcomes.
