Curi Hilpay

In the Spanish chronicles, Curi Hilpay, also spelled Ccuri-hilpay, was the woman whose marriage linked an Ayarmaca lord to Cápac Yupanqui, ruler of Cusco.

Sarmiento de Gamboa says a wealthy Ayarmaca sinchi presented her from fear, while another account made her a native of Cusco. The marriage belonged to the diplomacy between Cusco and the Ayarmaca as Chanca power expanded; Sarmiento names her as the mother of Inca Roca.
