Travels in Peru and India by Sir Clements R. Markham

[297] _Relacion del Conde de Castellar_, p. 222. [298] _Relacion del Obispo Melchor Liñan y Cisneros_, p. 299. [299] This appears from the _Informe_ of Diego Tupac Amaru, dated Azangaro, Oct. 18, 1781; in which he stipulates that the coca estate near San Gavan, in Caravaya, shall be granted to Mariano Tupac Amaru as his rightful possession, because it belonged to his father the Inca. [300] _Bosquejo_, &c. [301] There is one other town, or rather wretched village, on this Arctic plain, within Caravaya, called Macusani, about 30 miles north-west of Crucero. [302] A Quichua poem was written on the Cura Cabrera, and his breed of paco-vicuñas, by Don M. M. Basagoitia. _Rivero's Antiq. Per._ 112-13. [303] According to Don Pablo Pimentel. The people of Sandia told me 45,000 cestos, or 900,000 lbs.; and Lieut. Gibbon, U.S.N., in his work, says 500,000 lbs. [304] These Chunchos of Caravaya belong to the same tribe as the fierce Indians of the Paucartambo valleys, for some account of whom see my former work, _Cuzco and Lima_, p. 272. Don Pablo Pimentel calls the wild tribes of Caravaya _Caranques_ and _Sumahuanes_, but I think this is a mistake. Garcilasso de la Vega mentions the _Coranques_ as a fierce tribe to the north of Quito, who were conquered by the Inca Huayna Capac.--_Comm. Real_, i. lib. viii. cap. vii. p. 274. [305] _Challhua_, fish, in Quichua; and _uma_, water, in Aymara.
