Incan legends say Manco Cápac was the son of the sun god. He was sent by his father the sun god, to the earth to save people from wildness and barbarity, teach them agriculture and crafts, “the creator of the world”

Based on the legends, Manco Cápac ruled the country for about forty years.

● Achievements of Manco Capac- introduced a code of laws, and supposedly abolished human sacrifices.
● The Inca had a sophisticated civilization with successful agricultural practices,

an impressive army, and complex religious and social structures.
● The Inca emperor was considered to be a descendant of the sun god Inti, one of many gods in the Inca pantheon, and held much power among his people. According to legend, Manco Capac was the founder and first emperor of the Inca.

● Manco Capac was believed to be the son of Inti the sun god and Mama Quilla, the goddess of the moon. He was considered to be a fire and a sun god like his father.
Although Manco Capac is considered the first Sapa Inca, or sole ruler of the Inca, many varied myths describe Manco Capac’s rise to power and his founding of the Inca capital Cuzco.

● According to one story, Manco Capac was sent to Earth by his father to establish a civilised center for human progress. So Manco Capac emerged from the underworld, carrying a golden staff known as a tapac-yauri.

His father told him that this golden staff would lead him to the ideal location for his city, as well as a site for a temple dedicated to Inti.

So Manco Capac went on a wild goose chase through the Andes Mountains and surrounding valleys. Finally, he came across a lovely valley, and when he thrust his golden staff into it, it sank in without a struggle. This was the indication he had been told to look for. So Manco Capac built his city in this spot and named it Cuzco.
● He taught them how to plant crops,

How to make tools, weave cloth, make weapons and defend themselves. Over time, additional tribes gathered around Cuzco and Manco Capac rose over them as the first Sapa Inca.

● As ruler of the Inca, Manco Capac set up a code of laws, which some believed abolished human sacrifice
