riracocha
  21

riracocha is incorrectly written, and should be written as "viracocha" being its meaning:
riracocha = viracochaViracocha, Wiracocha or Huiracocha, also called the God of the poles or rods, is the most prominent among the gods of the Andean sphere. It is possible that its great dissemination was due to that the Catholic religious were looking for a name to explain the concept of God to the natives. In addition, they added to his name other words in order to emphasize their quality of Supreme being, and thus the name was formed in quechua: Apu Qun Tiqsi Wiraqucha.
