The Huarochirí manuscript is a
religious tradition of the Andes in an Andean language. It talks about an
age when cannibal deities preyed on immortal humans. It unfolds the splendor of
ceremonies that prehispanic priests devoted to a landscape alive with the
diverse sacred beings called huacas. It talks about memories of Inca rule
and of how unknown invaders brought new Gods to displace the
children of Paria Caca and of Chaupi Ñamca. The manuscript is a complex composite testimony of these changes as well as a
compendium of ancient memories. Jade Cobb
