[150] Garcilasso de la Vega says that the legitimate wife of Lloque Yupanqui was named Mama Cava. [151] See p. 17. [152] See p. 14. [153] Garcilasso de la Vega also says that Sinchi Rocca waged no wars; but that the Canches submitted to him, and that by peaceful means he extended his dominions as far as Chuncara, about twenty leagues beyond his father’s frontier. [154] _Lloque_ means left-handed, and _Yupanqui_ is the second person singular of the indicative future of a verb meaning “to count”. “_You will count_”, and it is understood that he will count as great, virtuous, and excellent. [155] Chapter xcii. [156] According to Garcilasso de la Vega, this Ynca Lloque Yupanqui not only conquered the Canas and Ayaviri, but the whole Collao submitted to him, as far as Hatun-colla and Chucuito. [157] Paullu Tupac Yupanqui was a son of the Ynca Huayna Ccapac. He lived at Cuzco, in the house which belonged to his brother Huascar; much beloved and respected both by Spaniards and Indians. The Governor Vaca de Castro induced him to be baptised with the name of Christóbal. He died in May 1549. [158] _Mayta_ has no special meaning in Cuzco. _Ccapac_ means rich, not in gold, but in the qualities of mind. [159] According to Garcilasso de la Vega, the Ynca Mayta Ccapac married his sister Mama Cuca. [160] _Allcay-villcas_, as written by Balboa; and _Alcaviya_, according to Betanzos. In the report on the first Lords of Cuzco by the Viceroy Don Francisco de Toledo, written in 1572, it is _Alca-uizas_. [161] Garcilasso de la Vega gives a very different account of the reign of Mayta Ccapac, whom he makes out to have been a great conqueror. He says that Mayta Ccapac marched to the river Desaguadero, crossed it, and conquered the great province called Hatun-pacasa, on the other side. His captains crossed the Cordilleras to Moquegua, where the Ynca established a colony. Mayta Ccapac then conquered the provinces on the eastern side of lake Titicaca, including Caravaya, and eventually overran the whole of Charcas as far south as the lake of Paria. Not satisfied with this great acquisition to the south, Garcilasso also attributes to this Ynca the annexation of the provinces of Chumpivilicas, Parinacochas, and Pumatampu to the west of Cuzco; and the colonisation of Arequipa.--See my Translation, i, pp. 210-234. [162] The language was first called _Quichua_ by Friar Domingo de Santo Tomas, in his grammar printed at Valladolid in 1560. _Quehani_ is “I twist”, and the participle _quehuasca_ means twisted. _Ychu_ is “straw”--together, _Quehuasca-ychu_, “twisted straw”, corrupted and abbreviated into _Quichua_. A Quichua is properly an Indian who inhabits the temperate slopes, so called from the abundance of straw in that region. According to Garcilasso de la Vega the name of Quechua was applied to the basin of the river Abancay (i, p. 243).
