Manco Inca Yupanqui (1516–1544) (
Manqu Inka Yupanki in
Quechua) was the founder and monarch (
Sapa Inca) of the independent
Neo-Inca State in
Vilcabamba, although he was originally a puppet Inca Emperor installed by the Spaniards. He was also known as "Manco II" and "Manco Cápac II" ("Manqu Qhapaq II"). He was one of the sons of
Huayna Cápac and a younger brother of
Huascar.
