Resumo: This paper reflects on the notion of the end of the world or Pacha-kutiy, an idea conceived as a general misfortune in ancient Peru. It symbolizes cosmological, telluric, and anthropic changes, past and present; this sign links God, man, and the world. This study aims to interpret the different forms of Pacha-kutiy that, as a numinous crises model, the political, religious, and vital behavior of the Quechuan man. The texts mention that this entity unfolded in seven modalities and its presence materialized in linguistic categories. Hermeneutics directed the understanding of colonial documents and the reconstruction of the meanings of the mythological story. For this purpose, some Inca myths of the 16th century were interpreted, supported by the analysis of the native languages' vocabularies. The reflection contemplates three parts; the first one studies the meaning of some Quichuan categories; the second one shows the seven conceptions of Pacha-kutiy; the final one alludes to the current implications. The study showed the link between the meaning of Pacha-kutiy, the idea of punishment, the rules of coexistence, and the possibilities of Inca existence, traces that still survive.

El objetivo es interpretar las distintas formas de pacha-kutiy que como crisis numinosas modelan el comportamiento político, religioso y vital del hombre quichua. Esta entidad se desplegó en siete modalidades y su presencia se materializó en categorías lingüísticas. La hermenéutica direccionó la comprensión de los documentos coloniales y la reconstrucción de los significados del relato mitológico. Para el efecto, se interpretaron algunos mitos incas del siglo XVI respaldados con el análisis de los vocabularios de las lenguas nativas del mismo periodo. La reflexión contempla tres partes: la primera estudia el significado de algunas categorías quichuas; la segunda muestra las siete concepciones de pacha-kutiy; la final alude a las implicancias actuales. El estudio mostró el nexo entre el sentido de pacha-kutiy, la idea de castigo, las normas de convivencia y las posibilidades de existencia inca; huellas que aún perviven.Este trabalho reflete sobre a noção de fim do mundo ou pacha-kutiy, uma ideia que é concebida como um infortúnio geral no antigo Peru e como um símbolo das mudanças cosmológicas, telúricas e antrópicas, do passado e do presente que une Deus. , o homem e o mundo. O objetivo é interpretar as diferentes formas de pacha-kutiy que, como crises numinosas, moldam o comportamento político, religioso e vital do homem quíchua. Esta entidade foi desdobrada em sete modalidades e a sua presença materializou-se em categorias linguísticas. A hermenêutica direcionou a compreensão dos documentos coloniais e a reconstrução dos significados da história mitológica. Para tanto, foram interpretados alguns mitos incas do século XVI, apoiados na análise dos vocabulários das línguas nativas do mesmo período. A reflexão inclui três partes: a primeira estuda o significado de algumas categorias quichua; o segundo mostra as sete concepções de pacha-kutiy; o final refere-se às implicações atuais. O estudo mostrou o nexo entre o sentido de pacha-kutiy, a ideia de punição, as normas de coexistência e as possibilidades da existência Inca; vestígios que ainda sobrevivem.SciELO PreprintsSciELO PreprintsSciELO Preprints2021-06-29info:eu-repo/semantics/preprintinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/preprint/view/255510.1590/SciELOPreprints.2555spahttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/article/view/2555/4412Copyright (c) 2021 Segundo Fabián Potosí Cachimuelhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessPotosí Cachimuel, Segundo Fabiánreponame:SciELO Preprintsinstname:SciELOinstacron:SCI2021-06-28T16:13:01Zoai:ops.preprints.scielo.org:preprint/2555Servidor de preprintshttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scieloONGhttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/oaiscielo.submission@scielo.orgopendoar:2021-06-28T16:13:01SciELO Preprints - SciELOfalse
