Max Paredes was an ethnic Aymara Apu Mallku of Qullana Suyu Marka (Greater Collasuyu) between 2000 and 2003. He had been a Mallku representing the Aymara community of part of Bolivia before he was chosen as the next Apu Mallku.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

Critical limits

Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Use the entry as an orientation point, then follow its citations and revision history. Names, dates and institutional relationships should be checked against the original record.
