 | | (mang-ko-ing-ka-yu-pang'-ke), Inca of Peru, born in Cuzco in 1516; died in the Andes in 1544. |
 | | The inca cut several detachments to pieces, and then besieged Cuzco, which was defended by 170 men, with a force that amounted to 200,000, if the Spanish chroniclers are to be believed, he also sent a division to besiege Lima. |
 | | The inca entered into negotiations with Almagro, whose hostility to Pizarro he was acquainted with, but after the rejection of his overtures he attacked the Spanish forces, and was defeated with much slaughter. |
