Indian auxiliaries were those indigenous peoples of the Americas who allied with Spain and fought alongside the conquistadors during the Spanish colonization of the Americas. These auxiliaries acted as guides, translators and porters, and in these roles were also referred to as yanakuna, particularly during the Spanish conquest of the Inca Empire. The term was also used for formations composed of indigenous warriors which were used by the Spanish for reconnaissance and combat duties. Indian auxiliaries continued to be used by the Spanish to maintain control over their colonies in the Americas; frequently stationed on the frontier, they were often used to suppress anti-colonial revolts such as Arauco War.

  • Los españoles denominaban Indios auxiliares, a los indígenas que eran integrados a las tropas conquistadoras españolas (principalmente en crónicas y textos históricos antiguos) con el fin de prestar apoyo en sus avances y operaciones militares, durante la Conquista de América. Actuaban como guías, traductores llamados lenguas, o porteadores. La denominación era igualmente extensiva a las formaciones militares compuestas por los mismos indígenas, que solían cumplir funciones de exploración, guerrilla, cubrimiento de flancos y reserva de batalla. Los llamados indios auxiliares se mantuvieron activos, pasada la conquista, durante algunas sublevaciones, en zonas fronterizas y áreas de guerra permanente, como sucedió en Chile en la Guerra de Arauco y los indios amazónicos en Perú durante las Gu (es)
