ABSTRACT

As soon as the Inca returned to Cuzco, leaving his two sons Tupac Amaru and Apu Paucar Usnu 1 in the CalIao, those captains set out from Lampa, advancing to HatunColla, where they knew that the ColIas had rallied their troops to fight the Cuzcos once more, and that they had raised one of the sons of Chuchi Ccapac to be Inca. The Incas came to the place where the ColIas were awaiting them in arms. They met and fought valorously, many being killed on Path sides. At the end of the battle the ColIas were defeated and their new Inca was taken prisoner. Thus for a third time were the ColIas conquered by the Cuzcos. By order of the Inca, his sons, generals of the war, left the new Inca of the ColIas at Hatun-ColIa, as a prisoner well guarded and re-captured. The other captains went on, continuing their conquests, as the Inca had ordered, to the confines of Charcas and the Chichas.
