Cacique or Cazique (female form: Cacica) is a term applied to the pre-Columbian chiefs or leaders, predominantly in Latin America. Some historians, such as Charles C. Mann in his book 1491: New Revelations of the Americas Before Columbus (2005), have objected the use of the term instead of king to refer to the Native American monarchs, even if it is widely employed for the leaders of the so called barbars in European history (such as king of the huns, the franks, the goths, etc.).
