canota in the far distance. Paullu died in May, 1549, and was succeeded on the Colcampata by his son Carlos Inca. He had two other sons named Felipe and Bartolome. From the latter was descended the late Archdeacon of Cuzco, Dr Justo Salmaraura Inca. Titu Atauchi, the youngest son of Huayna Ccapac, had a son Alonso. The princesses, daughters of Huayna Ccapac and sisters of Manco and Paullu, were Beatriz Nusta, married first to Martin de Mustincia, and secondly to Diego Hernandez of Talavera; Leonor Nusta, the wife of Juan de Balsa, who was killed at the battle of Chupas on the side of young Almagro, secondly of Francisco de Villacastin: Francisca Nusta, niece of Huayna Ccapac, married to Juan de Collantes, and was great-grandmother of Bishop Piedrahita, the historian of Nueva Granada: another Beatriz Nusta married Mancio Sierra de Leguisano, the generous defender of the natives; and Inez Nusta married first Francisco Pizarro and had a daughter Francisca, who has descendants, and secondly to Francisco Ampuero.
