The conclusion that the Royal Incas of Peru were Oriental is not surprising to anyone who has studied the published data that arose concerning these people at the time of the Spanish Conquest of the Incas. Especially if the student was also somewhat familiar with Chinese Culture.

There can be no question that the Royal Incas were a different race of people from the people they ruled.

There was a very close association between the Royal Incas and the Aymara people of Lake Titicaca, in which the Aymara served the Royal Incas out of choice. The Incas used the Aymara as an administrative buffer between themselves and the peoples they ruled.

The Spanish were aware of these facts, and Spanish Captains sought Royal Inca Princesses as their wives. A Sergeant in the Spanish Army dedicated (with permission) his entire military career to recording the lives and customs of the common people ruled by the Incas. The Roman Catholic Church found it relatively easy to win converts from among the peoples ruled by the Incas, but next to impossible to convert Incas themselves.
