The last indisputable Inca, Huayna Capac, who came to power in 1493, the year after Columbus landed in America, made the
final conquests. He extended the empire so that it included Chachapoyas on the right bank of the upper Rio Marañon in
northern Peru, and his warriors reduced the belligerent tribes on the Isle of Puná (off the coast of Ecuador) and around
Guayaquil on the adjacent shore. The final Inca extension was even farther to the north; in 1525 the frontiers reached
Rumichaca, a natural bridge over the Ancasmayo River, which now marks, more or less, the boundary between Ecuador and
Colombia.
