thcCbangM, whom in a bloody Battel he tonquer'd, and brought them all under his 

 Obedience : Moreover, he made his Soldiers believe, that they were not the Con- 

 querors, but invifible Men,whom Firacocba had fent,and who could be feen by none 

 buthimfelf^and that after the Battel they were turn'd into Stones,which they muft 

 leek for. Whereupon they gathering a great number of Stones on the Mountains, Qtbjfa 

 Xupangui call'd them Pururancas, and order'd that they fiiould be worfhipp'd, and 

 carried with them into the Field whenfoe're they fought another Battel, hoping 

 thereby to ftir up his Soldiers to be couragious, who firmly believ'd, that with th£ 

 vifible Stones walk'd invifible Heroes that would certainly affift them. This Ima- 

 gination wrought fo much, that Yupangms Army affur'd of Victory with the help 

 of the Stones, went on undauntedly on all Defigns, infomuch that being fear'd by 

 all the adjacent People, he fore'd them all to fubmi/fion. This Yupangui rais'd the 

 Family Yuaupococa, and plac'd a great Golden Image call'd Indyllapa on a Golden 

 Chariot, which fince was religioufly worfhipp'd, and afterwards carried to Q<txa- 

 malca, for a Ranfom of the Peruvian King Attabaltba, whom the Spanijh General Pi^ar* 

 rus kept Prifoner, and at laft Strangled. The Councellor Polm opening Yupangms 

 Grave, found the Body Embalmed, and no Way defaced, but the Eyes covered with 

 thin Golden Plates, and on his Head appear'd the Scar of a Stone which had been 

 thrown at him 5 and though the Body had lain eighty years in the Grave, yet it 

 feem'd rather living than dead, being onely a little grey. This Corps, as alfo feve. 

 ral other Inga's, the Marquefs Camette brought from Cufco to Lima, fo to prevent the 

 Peruvians worfhipping of them. 



Ynpangui after his Deccafe was fucceeded by Sopa Inga, and he by his Son of the 

 fame Name, who rais'd the Family Ayoac JtUo : The laft (for nothing worthy of 

 memory was done by either of them,) was fucceeded by GuaynacaVa, a wealthy and 

 valiant young Man, who was no fooner fetled on the Throne, but he manag'd all l!^& 

 things with great prudence, maintain'^ War with feveral People, and conquer'd 

 the Kingdom of Quito, four hundred Leagues beyond Cufco, whither after his Death 

 his Body was carried, and buried in the famous Temple of the Sun, but his Entrails 

 were buried in Quito not without many bloody Offerings, thoufands of his Servants 

 Sacrificing themfelves at his Grave willingly, that fo they might ferve their Prince 

 in the other World. The invaluable Treafures which he left.behind him were care- 

 fully hid by the Peruvians till the Spaniards conquer'd that Countrey : The pav'd 

 Ways, magnificent Buildings, and ftrong Caftles, teftifieas yet the Po.#er of this 

 lnga, wherefore in his life-time he was honor'd as a God. His Mother Mamaoclo liv'd 

 to fee above three hundred of her Children's Children, all Extracted from her Son 

 GuaynacaVa. 



The chief of the Family Tanebamba were Huafcar and Attabaliba y Sons to Guaynaca* warb«w*en 

 Va,(both by the Coya,ot lawful Queen, ho weverfome have deliver'cj to the contrary) bbsSE* 

 who falling at variance betwixt themfelves, refolv'd to decide the Quarrel by a 

 Field-Battel, in which Jttabaliba, being the youngeft, was Conqueror. This Civil , 



War was at the heighth when the Spaniards invaded Peru, which they could ne- 

 ver have conquer'd, had not the Realm been fo divided. During Jctabalibas Im- 

 prifonment by Pi^arrus, his two Generals, Qui^ani^ and Cbilicucbima, took the Inga 

 Huafcar (formerly call'd Ttto Cufi Gualpa, Jttabalibas Brother) in Cufco, and carrying ttwjU 

 him to the Valley Sacfahuana, burnt him alive. It is fet down as remarkable, 

 that Huafcar after his being vanquilh'd, made great Offerings toViracocha, thereby 

 to gain his afliftance in his extremity zzpinb Attabaltba -, when he was informed, that 

 aftrange People which came from a remote Place over the Seas, had defeated Jtta* 

 baliba's Army,and taken him Prifoner : From which News Huafcar taking courage,
