Goddesses and Gods.wps - Welcome to Our Temple

The great god Wirkocha disguised as a traveler in rags. A trickster, a prankster. No
one knew who he was, and the people he passed called him names. Yet as he walked,
he created. With a word he made the fields and terraced hillsides. Dropping a reed
blossom, he made water flow.
Kukulcan Kukulcan (Maya)
"The Feathered Serpent.) Serpent god. The city of Quirigua was dedicated to his
service. Roughly similar to Quetzalcoatl of the Aztecs. He is said to have built the
great city of Chicen Itza.
Mama Mama Mama Quilla Quilla Quilla (Inca)
Goddess of the moon. Protector of married women. Her image is a silver disc with a
human face.
Manco Manco Capac Capac (Inca)
The son of Inti, also a solar god. The youngest of four brothers, Manco Capac defied
the eldest brother who greedily demanded all of creation for himself. Sealing the
eldest brother forever in a cave, Manco Capac murdered another and frightened the
third into fleeing, never to be seen again. Thus gaining power over all the world,
Manco Capac founded the city of Cuzco and was worshiped as the Son of the Sun.
Ngurvilu Ngurvilu (Araucanian, Chile)
God of lakes and seas. Ngurvilu prowls about the waters in the form of a wild cat. It's
tail ends in a huge claw, with which Ngurvilu might attack any human out of sheer
maliciousness.
Pachamac Pachamac (Inca)
God of the earth, creator god. Prior to the Incan conquest, the Peruvians worshiped
Pachamac as the supreme being. For political purposes, the Incas were forced to adopt
Pachamac into their own pantheon, but his position was never very secure. The great
Inca Atahualpa treated Pachamac's priests with cold indifference, explaining to the
Spanish conquistador Francisco Pizarro that the god's oracle had made three
ruinously inaccurate prophecies. The Great Sun King even incited the Spaniards to
defile and loot the god's temple. They accepted the invitation enthusiastically.
Pillan Pillan (Araucanian, Chile)
God of fire, thunder, and war, chief of all the gods. Aided by brigades of evil spirits,
Pillan causes earthquakes and volcanic eruptions, blights crops, creates storms and
sends war.
Supai Supai (Inca)
