That which we call the second age, and the idolatry that was practised in it, had its origin with Manco Ccapac, the Ynca who first established the empire of the Yncas, kings of Peru, who reigned for a period of four hundred years, though the Father Bias Valera says that it was for more than five hundred and near six hundred years. We have already spoken of Manco Ccapac, relating who he was and whence he came, how he founded his empire and subjugated the Indians who were his first vassals, teaching them to sow, and rear flocks, to build houses, and to perform the other acts necessary to sustain the natural life. We recounted how his sister and wife, the Queen Mama Ocllo Huaco, taught the women to sew, weave, and bring up their children, to serve their husbands with love and cheerfulness, and to perform all the other household duties of a good wife. We also stated that they taught the natural laws to their people, and gave them laws and precepts for a moral life, for the common good of all, that they might not offend each other, either in their honour or their estates. They also taught the Indians their idolatry and ordered them to worship the Sun as principal God, persuading them that it was right to do so, by reason of its beauty and splendour. They declared that the Pachacamac (which means the sustainer of the world) had not in vain advanced the Sun so far above all the stars of heaven, granting them as his servants, that they might adore him, and hold him as their God.
