Definition of Pachacamac:

A divinity worshiped by the ancient Peruvians as the creator of the universe.

Usage examples:

This image Kari washed before he touched himself with water, bowing to it the while, and when he saw me observing him, looked upwards to the sky and said a word that sounded like Pachacamac, from which I took it to be some idol that the poor man worshipped.
