In this paper, I claim that Cuniraya Huiracocha, Huatiacuri and Pariacaca, which are lacking subjects, act as tricksters under the form of huacchas to obtain a particular object of desire through which their lack becomes fulfilled: Cuniraya Huiracocha tries to keep the maiden Cahuillaca, which leads...

| Sumario: | In this paper, I claim that Cuniraya Huiracocha, Huatiacuri and Pariacaca, which are lacking subjects, act as tricksters under the form of huacchas to obtain a particular object of desire through which their lack becomes fulfilled: Cuniraya Huiracocha tries to keep the maiden Cahuillaca, which leads to the reorganization of the Andean fauna; Huatiacuri, through his incorporation to a nuclear family, prepares Pariacaca’s arrival; and Pariacaca, through the demonstration of his power, and being recognized 318 Lexis Vol. XXXIX (2) 2015 and confirmed as deity, seeks to establish and consolidate a new regime, which he himself will rule. Based on this discussion, I explore a ChristianAndean plan of salvation due to the parallels between Cuniraya and the Creator God, Huatiacuri and John the Baptist, and Pariacaca and Jesus, where acting as trickster plays a crucial role. |
