Xllang

Xllang was a Sican, or Lambayeque, kingdom in the La Leche and Lambayeque valleys on Peru's north coast. Its rulers inherited a tradition of elaborate metalworking and gold-rich burials at Batán Grande.

Floods and droughts weakened the late kingdom. Around 1375 the Chimú conquered it and took its goldsmiths south. A local legend named the conqueror Chimú Cápac and said he appointed Pongmassa as governor; around 1470 the territory passed with Chimor to the Inca.
