Wanka Civilization

The Wanka (also Wanca or Huanca) people occupied the highlands of ancient central Peru around Lake Junin and the Manataro, Chanchamayo and Tarma rivers. The culture flourished from the Middle to Late Horizon periods (600 CE - 1532 CE). Dwelling in fortified hill-top settlements, they largely specialised in llama herding. As with other cultures in the area, herding was long-preferred over farming. It was not until c. 1000 CE that intense maize farming began, much later than in other contemporary cultures. This shift in agricultural practice was motivated by changes in settlements and a significant increase in population density. Now concentrated in walled towns, the capital city of the Wanka was established at Wari Willka.

Wanka art and architecture across their different settlements were influenced by the nearby Huari culture and the Ayacucho style. Settlements vary in size with the majority having fewer than 50 buildings but several having over 100. Most buildings were circular and arranged in small groups of up to twelve around an open courtyard. There is not much evidence of town planning, although some settlements were constructed in pairs in close proximity.

The Wanka provided stiff resistance to the Inca Empire until their final defeat at the hands of the great Inca leader Pachacuti (r. 1438 - 1471 CE). The Incas shifted populations to lower-level locations and administered the area from an imperial centre at Jaujatambo. Agriculture became better organised in order to produce quotas for the Inca state and large storage buildings (qollqa) were built.

Never wholly subjugated to Inca rule, the Wanka were often embroiled in border disputes with their neighbours the Xauxa, and the Incas describe the Wanka as being continuously plagued by internal disputes. Nevertheless, they became keen allies of Pizarro in his conquest of the Inca Empire. The Wankas also helped the Spanish Crown put down several rebellions in the early decades of colonial rule in Peru, notably the defeat of Francisco Hernández Girón between 1553 and 1554 CE. Their name lives on today with the Peruvian city and province of Huancayo being named after them, as is the local football team Deportivo Wanka.

Lyrics:

No one looked

I walked by

Just an invitation would have been just fine

Said no to him again and again

First he took my heart then he ran

No one knows how I feel

What I say unless you read between my lines

One man walked away from me

First he took my hand

Take me home

(Stand back, stand back)

In the middle of my room

I did not hear from you

It's alright, it's alright

To be standing in a line

(Standing in a line)

To be standing in a line

I would cry

La, la, la-la, la, la, laaa, la-la

La, laaaa

La, la, la-la, laaaaa

Do not turn away my friend

Like a willow I can bend

No man calls my name

No man came

So I walked on down away from you

Maybe your attention was more

Than you could do

But one man did not call

He asked me for my love

And that was all

(Stand back, stand back)

In the middle of my room

I did not hear from you

It's alright, it's alright

To be standing in a line

(Standing in a line)

To be standing in a line

I would cry

La, la, la-la, la, la, laaa, la-la

La, laaaa

La, la, la-la, la, la, laaaaa

Too few, too few

Laaaaa

La, la, la-la, la, la, laaa, la-la

La, la, laaaa

La, la, la-la, laaaaaa

So I walked, walked down the line

Away from you

Maybe your attention was more

Than I could do

One man did not fall

Well, he asked me for my love

That was all

(Stand back, stand back)

In the middle of my room

I did not hear from you

It's alright, it's alright

To be standing in a line

(Standing in a line)

To be standing in a line

I could cry

I need a little sympathy

Well, I need a little sympathy

Well, I need to be standing in

(Stand back)

Well, I need to be standing in

(Stand back)

Well, I need to be standing in

(Stand back)

Take me home

Take me home

(Stand back)

Don't you take me home

Well, I need a little sympathy

(Stand back)…

1553 год. Болезнь Ивана Грозного и кризис власти

Тяжело больной Иван IV в фильме С. Эйзенштейна «Иван Грозный»В марте 1553 года наша страна в очередной раз оказалась на распутье, и её история вполне могла пойти по какому-то другому пути. Связано это было с тяжёлой болезнью Ивана IV, которую некоторые исследователи поспешили объявить симуляцией: якобы этот «спектакль» понадобился царю лишь для того, чтобы выявить нелояльных бояр – и, разумеется, ...

Love you all dearly, but also - Please make sure the username is in use and accepting DMs from people you may not already share a server with!

Reason: Sorry bud, but I already can't contact one of you. Please try again or DM a mod!

🥳🥳🥳 Hello Party People! 🥳🥳🥳

Thank you all so much for your interest and all the help you've given promoting our event by reblogging our posts, sending us asks, and just generally talking about the event with other people.

We are officially ✨ ONE MONTH ✨ from signups, so as a little treat to all of you... We're opening the discord server early!

Once signups are live, we'll give out roles for artists, writers, and folks who want to do both respectively, but until then, you'll all be able to start mingling, meeting new and familiar fans, and generally have a slightly more casual environment to talk and ask questions. I certainly have an easier time chatting in a server than sending an ask!

So without further ado...

🎉[HERE is a link to a google form where you can submit your discord username so we can send you an invite!]🎉

Discord has changed some of its free options, so we can't post a link that won't expire in 7 days. That's part of why we are opting to share the server like this. We aren't asking for your email or any extra details. If you don't want to use the form, you are also free to Direct Message any of our MODS on this page, or send an Ask to the Collabang tumblr that we'll answer privately so you can hang on to it.

This server will not be publicly linked at any point because it is intended to be for participants to discuss their top secret bang projects! We ask that you do not share your invite link with anyone else, but if there's someone else you want to participate, feel free to send them our way and we'll be happy to give them an invite as well!
