A collection of fourteen paintings in oil on canvas, bearing inscriptions designating the name and succession of each monarch.

This series of the Incas, as given by Herrera, differs from that of Garcilasso, in the addition of Vrco (241), who is said to have reigned only eleven days, and the omission of Yupanqui, the son of Pachacutec (242).
