ABSTRACT

The Chancas were defeated, Inca Yupanqui entered Cuzco in great triumph, and addressed the principal Orejones on their agreement. The people of Cuzco, discussed the matter, comparing the merits of Inca Yupanqui and Inca Urco, and by consent of the city, they agreed that Inca Urco should not enter Cuzco again, and that fringe should be taken from him and given to Inca Yupanqui. The new Inca ordered all those who had fallen in the battle on his side to be buried with the customary funeral rites. And as the Inca had summoned his army for war, he determined to proceed to Condesuyo. At the time, they relate that Viracocha Inca died, and they gave him sepulture with less pomp and honor than his ancestors, because he had deserted the city in his old age and had no wish to return when the Chancas made war.
