View through CrossRef
Túpac Katari was an Aymara leader in the so‐called Great Rebellion in Upper Peru (now Bolivia) of the indigenous population against the Spanish in the 1780s. Although born with the Christian name Julián Apaza in 1750 in Sicasica (La Paz), he adopted the name Túpac Katari in honor of the indigenous leader Túpac Amaru II (leader of the insurgency in Cuzco) and Thomás Katari (leader of the insurgency in Chayanta –Potosí) who fought against the Spanish colonial power in the same years. Túpac Katari grew up as an orphan and without any formal education and later lived the life of a common salesman of coca leafs in the Andes.
