New evidence suggesting that the Spanish chronicles of the conquest of the Incas may exaggerate Conquistadores heroism. Atleast they didn't blame the weather.

The great Inca rebellion was an attempt to defeat the Spanish in Lima. The chronicles depict the few Spaniards riding out to the 10,000 awaiting Inca warriors and defeating them. New material evidence suggests that the attacking Incas were more likely in the 1000's and the Spaniards had a massive supporting Inca force themselves.
