1 AGI, Patronato 239, R. 17-3, f. 115.
2 The classic example is the story of the discovery of the Potosí deposits by an Indian in search of a lost llama: see Amador Citation1906, 190–92; Bakewell Citation1971, 4; Hanke and Tudela y Bueso Citation1959, 288–89; Lane Citation2010, 57; Reséndez Citation2016, 28–30.
3 Pliny used the term minium for cinnabar, and cinnabaris for peroxide of iron, another reddish pigment; see Bostock Citation1828; Vitruvius Pollio Citation1999, books 33, 50, 56, 59.
4 Lohmann cites Baltasar Ramírez, Descripción del Reino del Perú, del sitio, temple, provincias, obispados, y ciudades de los naturales, de sus lenguas y trajes (1597).

6 Covarrubias defined the word ‘perulero’ in his 1611 Spanish dictionary as, ‘One who has returned rich from the Indies of Peru’ (my translation), a definition that well describes Garcés (Monguió Citation1960; Covarrubios Orozco Citation1611).

10 The original Spanish text reads:
De un Enrique Garcés, que al piruanoreino enriquece, pues con dulce rima,con subtil, ingeniosa, y fácil mano,a la mas ardua empresa en él dio cima,pues en dulce español al gran toscanonuevo lenguaje ha dado y nueva estima,¿quién será tal que la mayor le quite,aunque el mesmo Petrarca resucite?
(Cervantes Saavedra Citation1996, 397–98). An English translation is available at http://archive.org/details/galatea00cervrich.
