Pizarro Expedition - A Room Full of Gold and a Death Sent...

What this episode covers

Griffin Rowe examines the 1532 ambush at Cajamarca, where 168 Spaniards captured Inca emperor Atahuallpa. The episode explores the ransom—a room filled with gold—and its devastating aftermath: sacred treasures melted into bars, a promise betrayed, and the beginning of a civilization's collapse. A haunting meditation on greed, desacralization, and imperial conquest. Loved this episode?
