When I first came to this city [Lima], without knowing who was don Antonio de Acuña nor his brothers in law, I immediately heard the news of the great uprising of the Chilean Indians...[1] The Salazar brothers, or more accurately siblings since they included one sister, were Spanish criollos who played important roles in mid-17th century affairs in the Captaincy General of Chile.
They became infamous for their slave hunting expeditions, corruption and role in unleashing the Mapuche uprising of 1655.
