Mateo Rosas de Oquendo (ca. 1559–1612) is viceregal Peru's earliest satirist. Born in Spain, he travelled to the New World where he served as Secretary to the Viceroy García Hurtado de Mendoza. Notarial documentation shows him as engaged in the conquest of Tucumán, where he is named Accountant of Royal Finances and founds the city of La Rioja. He was also a land grantee in Canchanga and Camiquín. He probably left Peru and settled in Mexico around 1598.
His works are found mainly in two manuscripts, one at the National Library of Spain in Madrid (MS 19381) and the other, Ms. Codex 193, at the Library of the University of Pennsylvania.[1]
