AIAPATA, a settlement of the province and

richly impregnated with this metal, that lumps of

mon to meet with persons of 90 years of age, and
many also of 100.

some forts, which were built by the Indians in the
time of their gentilism, and now in a state of great
dilapidation. There is a lake of warm water here,
the bottom of which has never yet been found.
The water always keeps at one height, so that it is
presumed that it finds its way out through some
subterraneous channel. There is also another warm
AIM

noxious, and, as it runs, has the property of petri-
fying, in like manner as the spring of water in

kingdom, being full of lofty sierras and snowy
mountains. It is on this account that its climate is
very cold, excepting, however, in some vallies,
where it is more temperate, and where, on some
small sloping grounds, the inhabitants sow seed and
grain, and cultivate fruit trees and cane plantations,
