Chimpu Ocllo

Isabel Suárez Yupanqui, born as Palla Chimpu Ocllo (1523-1571), was a princess of the Inca Empire. She was born to Sapa Inca Túpac Huallpa (r. 1533).

She lived with Sebastián Garcilaso de la Vega y Vargas, a Spanish colonial official. They did not even speak one another's language, however in 1539 they had a son, Inca Garcilaso de la Vega.

In 1551, de la Vega y Vargas married a Spanish woman, and put Ocllo aside. He arranged for her to be married to a lower-ranked Spaniard, Juan del Pedroche. She and de Pedroche had two daughters: one, Ana Ruíz, married her cousin Martín de Bustinza, and had issue, while the other, Luisa de Herrera, married Pedro Márquez de Galeoto, becoming the mother of Alonso Márquez de Figueroa.
