The supplied sources identify Quya Anawarkhi as the wife of the Inca ruler Pachacuti and state that she was a native of Ayllu Chocco. The excerpts do not provide a mythic or genealogical origin tale, and they do not place her within a cosmological or supernatural genealogy. Within these sources she appears as an historical person associated with Pachacuti's court rather than as a figure of origin myths.
No physical description or iconography of Quya Anawarkhi is given in the provided excerpts. The sources do not record details about her clothing, age, stature, or other visual attributes; only her name(s) and relationship to Pachacuti are attested.
The sources do not attribute any supernatural abilities, magical functions, or distinctive behavioral patterns to Quya Anawarkhi. She is presented solely as the wife of Pachacuti with an attested place of origin; there are no recorded powers, roles as a ritual specialist, or mythic acts in the supplied material.

Aguano
Aguano is an ethnonym for an indigenous people of Peru (also recorded as Awano, Ahuano, Hilaca, Uguano, Aguanu, Santacrucino, Tibilo). Sources identify them as inhabitants of riverine areas of the Huallaga, Samiria and Marañón and note demographic collapse after European contact; the provided materials do not document Aguano as a supernatural being.
Aiapæc (Ai Apaec)
Aiapæc (Colonial Mochica: aiapæc, aiapäk) is a prominent mythological figure identified in Moche (Mochica) iconography. Scholarly reconstructions present Aiapæc as a powerful provider and protector associated with mountains, water, food and military success, and also as a feared punitive recipient of offerings including human heads; the exact rank and identity of the figure within pre‑Hispanic Moche religion is debated in the secondary literature.
Amaru (Inca mythology)
In Inca tradition, Amaru is a double-headed serpent representing infinity, knowledge, and cosmic renewal, with the ability to traverse worlds. (Note: - Power tier should be Ancient (Amaru's abilities suggest a deity-level power) - Origin story is missing - Wards and weaknesses are not mentioned in the source material, so they should be removed or r)
Apu
In Andean (Inca-era and continuing) belief, an apu is the spirit of a mountain or a solitary rock, conceived as a localized, often anthropomorphic guardian presence associated with a particular peak or notable stone in Peru, Ecuador, and Bolivia.
Apu Illapu
Apu Illapu (also Illapa, Ilyapa, Ilyap'a, Iyapa) is a major Inca deity associated with thunder, lightning, rain and other atmospheric phenomena. He was invoked in agricultural contexts and during drought; temples, pilgrimages, prayers and sacrifices were offered to secure his favor or to halt destructive storms.
Atoq (Andean fox spirit) — Untested attestation
Atoq is presented in some modern summaries as an 'Andean fox spirit' associated with Inca-related material, but the single provided source (a general overview of Inca mythology) does not itself attest specific information about Atoq. This entry therefore limits claims to what the supplied source supports and notes absent evidence where appropriate.
Ayar Anca (unconfirmed)
Ayar Anca is a queried name for which no direct attestation appears in the supplied source corpus. The materials provided document Inca creation and founding figures (e.g., Viracocha, Manco Cápac, Mama Ocllo) and note variant traditions; within that context the name Ayar Anca is not found and must be treated as unconfirmed pending primary-source evidence.
Ayar Auca
Ayar Auca is named in modern accounts as one of the Ayar siblings in the Inca origin cycle who emerge from the cave at Paqariq Tampu; in the provided sources he appears as a member of the founding-ancestor group rather than as a separately detailed supernatural class.
Ayar Cachi
In Inca mythology, Ayar Cachi is one of the brothers of Manco Cápac and a significant figure in the origin myth of the Incas. (Note: 1. Power tier: Lower to Ancient (deity-level) since Ayar Cachi is described as one of Manco Cápac's brothers and shares an origin myth, but does not appear to possess cosmic powers. 2. Abilities: The )
Ayar Uchu
Ayar Uchu is a name that appears in at least one modern web listing as an 'Inca God of Mystery' but lacks corroboration in the supplied primary and reference sources. There is no reliable ethnographic or classical mythic documentation for an entity by this exact name in the provided materials.
Aymara people (tradition)
Aymara cultural and ritual traditions of the high Andean Altiplano centering on long-term place-based continuity (Lake Titicaca, Tiwanaku), ancestor mortuary practices (chullpas), oral and musical repertoires, and distinctive linguistic cosmologies that shape how the community apprehends time, space, and relations with powerful places. The supplied sources do not record a single named supernatural entity; this entry documents the ethnographic and cosmological context relevant to Aymara beliefs about ancestors, sacred places, and ritual practice.
Bolas
Bolas are a physical throwing weapon consisting of weights connected by cords, used historically and traditionally to entangle the legs of animals (and occasionally humans) at a distance. They appear in multiple regional traditions—notably in southern South America among Tehuelche and gauchos, in Mapuche and Inca military contexts, and in Inuit bird-hunting practice—under a variety of local names and constructions.
