In the Peruvian portion of the above vocabuhiry we have 

 presented the same phenomenon that the Accad language presents, 

 a union of Khitan and 8umerian elements. Some of the Su- 

 merian elements have already appeared in the comparison of the 

 Aymara with the Celtic (Cymric) and Berber (Zimuhr, Amor, 

 -Gomera). It now remains to determine the Hittite or Khita 

 element which finds its chief representation in the Quichua, 

 although by no means unmixed with the Sumerian. Indeed so 

 complete and far reaching seems to have been the union between 

 Sumerians and Hittites, that it is questionable if any pure lan- 

 guage of either class can be found, or any indeed, of the one 

 that has not been largely influenced or affected by the other. 

 My reasons, however, for regarding the Quichua as Khita or 

 Khupuskian-Khita are those on the ground of which I have 

 already proposed to recognize the languages and peoples of this 

 class, namely, the preservation in the Quichua or Inca nomen- 

 clature of the distinctively Khupuskian-Khita names. As 

 analogous to the words Hubisega, Basque, Pkhah, we find, first 

 of all, the Quichua god, Apachic or Pachacamac, the form of 

 whose name is better illustrated in the Muysca mythology, where 

 the same solar deity appears as Pesca or Bochica. Apachic, Pesca 

 or Bochica is the Accadian Hubsisega and the Circassian Pkhah. 

 In the legendary history of Montesinos and others the same name 

 meets us as Pishua and Pachacuti, famous sovereigns of the 

 ancient Inca line; and geographical terms recalling Biscay,
