This image is illustrated in a chapter that discusses the Christian priests in the colonial government in Peru. A Spanish priest is illustrated standing on the right side of the image as he approaches an indigenous prosecutor on the left. The priest is dressed in ecclesiastic adornments and the indigenous prosecutor is dressed in a vertically embroidered unku [nightgown]. The priest approaches the indigenous prosecutor as he wishes to confiscate all writing instruments in his new parish as he feared accusations being written against him. The prosecutor is illustrated handing a scribe’s writing instruments over to the priest.
