Description: First contact occurred in December of AD1 1536. A small expeditionary force of Spanish soldiers and Peruvian auxiliaries, part of a larger colonization attempt under the command of Diego de Almagro, battled with a sizeable contingent of Che warriors near the confluence of the Itata and Ñuble Rivers in south-central Chile. The Che (often referred to as the Araucanians2 and who are known today as the Mapuche), is a sedentary agro-pastoralist culture that developed in central and south-central Chile and western Argentina for several centuries prior to European arrival. According to Spanish accounts, in an area called Reynogüelén the Che were repulsed by the Spanish, due in part to European horses, weapons, and armor which the Che had never before encountered
