Ayar Cachi

Ayar Cachi (Cachi means salt in Quechua^[1]) was one of the brothers of Manco Cápac, who emerged from the cave at Pacaritambo. He could shoot down hills with a single shot of his sling.

His brothers feared him, so he was sent back to the cave they came from and trapped in it with rocks.^[2]
