Chachapoya:

Leader: Blas Valera
Unique Ability: People of the Clouds
Units may move through/onto Mountains. (Enemy units can not attack your units in Mountains. You may not attack enemy units with range from mountains, but you may attack with melee from mountains) Jungles provide + 1 production.
Unique Building: Peri Chullpas Unique Improvement. May be built on mountains. Provides +2 Food, +2 science, +2 Production in Mountains. For every unit killed next to this tile the plot will provide +1 culture (maxes out at 4).
Unique Unit: Chachapoyan Macescout, Replaces Spearman. Starts with promotion (+40% Defensive bonus vs non-iron melee units) Loses Bonus vs Mounted units.
Possible cities:
Kuelap, Revash, Huancas, Purun Llacta, Yalape, Olan, Leymebamba, Chilchos, Gran Vilaya, Condors Lagoon, Congona, Jalca Grande, Macro, Yamon, Rentama, Iyacyecuj, Meseta.
Clarifications: Cities can not be built on mountains. Mountains comes with a base +1 production. Mountains only cost one movement point to cross through.
Possible strategies with this ability: Station troops in mountains so they cant be overwhelmed in a rush. Mounted units/melee units can engage in hit and run defensive combat, hitting a unit and then retreating to the mountains. Chullpas add to hit and run strategy and promote it by trying to have units die die near mountains. Other strategies include moving troops into enemy territory in mountains. Acts as constant harrassing threat making your enemy want to take a more defensive stance. Any opponent who has you to deal with and mountains near or in their borders, may think twice about warring you.
The most people know about the Chachapoya is probably the initial scene from Indiana Jones: Raiders of the Lost Ark
Info on Chachapoya:
http://peruperu.com/chachapoyas.htm - Agriculture, some ruins info
http://www.redicecreations.com/article.php?id=375 - Model of Chachapoya cities and some magnificent buildings/statues.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chachapoya_culture
http://findarticles.com/p/articles/m.../ai_n28732826/ - Some great details on Chachapoyan mummies
http://www.chachapoyas.com/ - Info on a good book concerning them
Some of the most amazing finds lately in the Andes have been Chachapoyan (cities, tombs, etc) and amazing things have been found (for example herbs that can only be found on specific pacific islands) suggesting perhaps trade on direct knowledge of some of these small pacific islands.
And maybe the Tupi (again someone malready modded them very well):

City-State Influence degrades at half and recovers at twice the normal rate.
Unique Unit
Blackwood Archer (Remplace Archer)
Free Promo: bonus when fighting on Forest and Jungle
Unique Building
Cannibal Altar (Remplace Courthouse)

Eliminates extra Unhappiness from an Occupied City,
trained units in the City heals more quickly (Free Promo: Fast Heal)
==================
The scenario could be based off of the Inca's general conquest of the region. The idea would be, the scenario is to conquer 3-4 Capitals before the Spanish arrive. Once the Spanish arrive civs who you have not conquered declare perm war on you and you must outlast their attacks and the Spanish attacks for a certain amount of turns. You will not be able to get gunpowder units in this scenario or mounted units.
A few additional sources of food could be used in the scenario (Quinoa and Corn).
There will be limited natural Wonders (El Dorado can appear, Lake Titicaca (4 food), Easter Island +3 food, +3 culture), perhaps Iguazu falls (perhaps a little too far off).
A few local World Wonders to be built: Machu Picchu, Huaca Fortaleza, Sascahuamán, Pumapunku, Kuelap, Cahuaci.
Just a rough idea if a modder maybe could construct?
