notes: 
Manco Capac, with his sister Mama-Ocllo, known as children of the Sun, were revered as the progenitors of Inca civilization. The last Inca emperor was also named Manco Capac and crowned as a puppet king by Francisco Pizarro. He escaped, however, and led the last stand of the Inca against the Spanish.
