Relations
Mama Quilla was generally the third deity in the Inca pantheon, after Inti (god of the sun) and Illapa (god of thunder), but was viewed as more important than Inti by some coastal communities, including by the Chimú. Relatives of Mama Quilla include her husband Inti, god of the sun, and her children Manco Cápac, first ruler of the Incas, and Mama Ocllo, his wife. After the Ichma, nominally of the Chimú empire, joined the Inca empire, she also became the mother of their deity Pacha Camac. Mama Quilla's mother was said to be Viracocha.
