    " In the colonial period, the Spaniards began to administer the existing roads and ordered the creation of new roads to link the main administrative centres of the Viceroyalty of Peru and (later on) of the Viceroyalty of New Granada. In the Northern Andes, Qhapaq Nan was called Camino Real, and was connected to other roads to link the capital of the Royal Audience of Quito to Santa Fe de Bogotá, capital of the Viceroyalty of New Granada" and "This road, known as the Camino Real connected Cusco with the city of La Paz. Fernando de Matienzo, in his work titled Ancient Memoires of the History and Politics of Peru ([1567] 1967), makes reference to the existence of the Camino Real which started at Cusco and went all the way to Charcas" (both from Nom File)
