Destruction of Seven Cities
- Destruction of Seven Cities
The Destruction of the Seven Cities in Arucanía was a result of the great Mapuche revolt in 1598. It is considered sometimes as the end of the Conquest of Chile. The revolt was triggered following the news of the battle of Curalaba in on the 23rd of December 1598, where the vice toqui Pelantaru and his lieutenants Anganamon and Guaiquimilla with three hundred men ambushed and killed the Spanish governor Martín García Óñez de Loyola and nearly all his companions.
Over the next few years the Mapuche were able to destroy or force the abandonment of seven Spanish cities in Mapuche territory: Santa Cruz de Oñez (1599), Valdivia (1599), Angol (1599), La Imperial (1600), Villarrica (1602), Osorno (1604), and Arauco (1604).
