They were also expert sculptors using as main material different mollusk shells species of the region. During the Inca period, Tumbes was subdued to the power of the Inca Pachacútec, and was transformed into an important administrative center of the Incan culture. But it was during the peak of the Inca Huayna Cápac control that Tumbes had a strategic relevance, building temples, roads, and homes. With the Spanish arrival in 1532, the Incan culture and the West culture met in Tumbes territory. Then the Spanish knew for the first time the strength and vitality of the indigenous warriors; some fought for possession, while others resisted invasion at the named Combate de Los Manglares (Manglares combat). Later, during the Independence war, Tumbes would be the first city to achieve its independence on January 7th, 1821.
