Don Diego de Castro Titu Cusi Yupanqui (1529-1571) was the seventeenth Inca king from 1561 until his death, and the third of Vilcabamba, the last retreat of the Incas.
He is known for a comprehensive written report that he had written to the Spanish King Philip II, in which he complained about the conquest of his ancestors' empire to clarify legal matters and demanded appropriate compensation. The work is unique and significant in that an at least nominally free ruler of a pre-Columbian advanced culture presents his view of Spanish colonial rule.
