It is given different names like Apian , aspire and Yauira , again aspire , again Apian and Yauirac from 1571-1653 recorded by chroniclers of those times. Then with the removal of idolaters is assigned the name of Simon who was quechuizado to Quimon and finally the Mama Simona and converted into a female mountain spirit.
