  Neighboring 
  tribes. 
  — 
  The 
  neighboring 
  tribes 
  to 
  the 
  southeast 
  were 
  

   the 
  Quillacinga 
  whose 
  domain 
  extended 
  to 
  the 
  Sotara 
  and 
  upper 
  Cauca 
  

   Kivers. 
  To 
  the 
  south, 
  the 
  Patia 
  separated 
  the 
  Moguex-Coconuco 
  

   from 
  the 
  Pasto, 
  in 
  whose 
  territory 
  are 
  found 
  archeological 
  remains 
  of 
  

   the 
  Ecuadorian 
  type. 
  Influence 
  from 
  Ecuador 
  is 
  felt 
  as 
  far 
  as 
  the 
  

   Juanambu 
  River, 
  but 
  it 
  does 
  not 
  extend 
  beyond 
  the 
  Mayo 
  River, 
  

   borderline 
  of 
  the 
  Inca 
  conquest. 
  To 
  the 
  west 
  the 
  tribes 
  of 
  the 
  west- 
  

   ern 
  slopes 
  of 
  the 
  Cordillera 
  Occidental 
  extended 
  to 
  the 
  coast. 
  Many 
  

   of 
  these 
  Indians 
  were 
  Choco, 
  who 
  will 
  be 
  described 
  in 
  Volume 
  4 
  of 
  the 
  

   Handbook. 
  To 
  the 
  east 
  lived 
  the 
  Andaqui 
  and 
  the 
  tribes 
  of 
  the 
  

   region 
  of 
  San 
  Agustin, 
  who 
  are 
  described 
  in 
  this 
  volume 
  (pp. 
  936-937). 
  

   To 
  the 
  north 
  live 
  the 
  Cauca 
  Valley 
  Indians, 
  who 
  were 
  on 
  friendly 
  

   terms 
  with 
  those 
  of 
  the 
  Popayan 
  Valley. 
  They 
  are 
  described 
  in 
  the 
  

   fourth 
  volume.
