Inca Manco had been murdered by a Spaniard in 1545. He had established himself in the mountainous region of Vilcapampa, which Rodriguez calls “the land of war of Manco” between the rivers Apurimac and Vilcamayu. His eldest son Sayri Tupac came out and surrendered to the Spaniards. He died in 1560. The next brother Titu Cusi Yupanqui continued to reign in Vilcapampa.
