Two tombs

This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apu_Punchau

"In Inca mythology, Inti was the sun god, as well a patron deity of
Tahuantinsuyu. His exact origin is not known. The most common story
says he is the son of Viracocha, the god of civilization. ...

Inti was also known as Apu Punchau, which means "leader [of the]
daytime". Inti is represented as a golden disc with a human face. A
great golden disk representing Inti was captured by the Spanish
conquistadors in 1571 and was sent to the Pope via Spain. It has since
been lost."
