Even before Pizarro's death at the hands of the Almagro faction, a new royal governor, Vaca de Castro, was sent to Peru to settle the disturbance among the Spanish. The new governor was joined by Alonso de Alvarado and others who had supported Pizarro. Together they fought against the forces of Almagro at the battle of Chupas in 1542, near the city of Ayacucho. Many men on both sides died before Almagro was caught and beheaded.The image is derived from Theodor de Bry, America, part 6, plate 16.This image follows the special title page for Antonio de Herrera y Tordesillas, Seer aanmerkelijke scheeps-togten, gedaan door Franciscus Pizarrus, en Didacus Almagrus, van Panama na Peru ... , Leiden, 1706.This collection of voyages consists of 127 parts, each having a special title page, separate pagination, and register.
