Description: This chapter focuses on discussing the arrival of Spaniards and the Spanish conquest of Peru. This image depicts the capturing of the Spanish conquistador, Francisco Hernandez Giron. Giron was a traitor to the crown as he had declared a rebellion against the king of Spain. After Giron and his men fled a battle against the crown in Huatococha, a group of indigenous peoples found and captured them. Giron and his soldiers are illustrated sitting on the left side of the image with their hands bound with rope. Giron is identified by his name being written on his helmet. They were captured by the Wanca indigenous peoples, led by Apo Alanya Chuquillanqui and Waccra Waman. Chuquillanqui and Waman are identified by their names being written on their chests on the right side of the image. The caption at the bottom of the image reads, en Xauxa [in Jauja].
