The book Royal Commentaries of the Incas, published in Lisbon in 1609, covers the history of the Incas in the first part and the conquest of Peru in the second part. It is a unique testimony to the history of the Incas written by the first great mixed-race Peruvian writer, Inca Garcilaso de la Vega, son of a noble Spanish captain and an Inca princess. This book reflects the meeting of the world of the Incas and the Christian world, the oral and written traditions and the future and the past.
