Pachacamac
The temple of Pachacamac is an archaeological site 40
km southeast of
Lima,
Peru in the Valley of the Lurín River. It had at least one pyramid, cemetery and multicolored fresco of fish by the
Early Intermediate period (c. 200-600 CE). Later, the
Huari (c. 600-800 CE) sponsored construction of the city, probably using it as an administrative center. A number of Huari influenced designs appear on the construction in this period and on the ceramics and textiles found in the cemeteries of this period. After the collapse of the Huari empire Pachacamac continued to grow as a religious state. The majority of the common architecture and temples were built at this stage (c. 800-1450 CE).

About
Pachacamac
[Inca] "Earth Maker". The supreme god and creator of the Yuncas of Peru, later adopted by the Incas. Also god of the earth. His consort is Mama Pacha and his brothers are Viracocha and Manco Capac. When he had created the first man and woman, he forgot to provide them with food. When the man died, the woman accused Pachacamac of neglect, whereupon he made her fertile, and she bore a son. The god killed the son, cut the corpse in pieces from which grew the various fruits and vegetables. The second son escaped him, however, and so the god slew the mother. This son, called Wichama, avenged his mother's death by driving Pachacamac into the sea.
Pachacamac
Pachacamac (Peruvian) The ruins of an ancient wall in Peru, believed to be the remains of a temple, of Cyclopean style -- large rocks of irregular size and shape fitted closely together, and similar to the ruins of Tiahuanaco (also in Peru) and masonry of Easter Island. "The oldest remains of Cyclopean buildings were all the handiwork of the Lemurians of the last sub-races" (SD 2:317), although the Atlanteans copied the Cyclopean style of the Lemurian buildings, so that some of the Cyclopean remnants are Lemurian in type, but of Atlantean handiwork.
Also "the name given by the Peruvians to the Creator of the universe, represented as a host of creators. On his altar only the first fruits and flowers were laid by the pious" (TG 245).
