Abstract

The article offers an approximation to the figure of Juan Recio de León, discoverer and settler of Tipuane, Chunchos and Paitite, and to his memorials, particularly his Relación de los servicios que Juan Recio de León… ha hecho a su majestad de más de veinte años a esta parte and Breve relación, both of 1623.
