The first queen of Peru is often considered to be Atahualpa's sister, Inés Huaylas Yupanqui, who was involved in the early colonial period following the Spanish conquest. However, the title of "queen" is not traditionally used in the context of indigenous leadership in Peru. Instead, the Inca Empire had emperors, with Huayna Capac being one of the notable rulers before the Spanish arrival. The concept of a queen in the European sense was not applicable to the Inca society.
