declared, considered, Chimú territory by Tello

I cannot think of an English word that that means chimuizada that would make sense; however what they mean to say is "this region was declared Chimú territory by Tello." I just talked to my Peruvian wife about this.

agree Evans (X) : "was later considered part of the Chimú empire by Tello", or "included in the Chimú empire..."

"Chimuized"

Seems as if this is an invented word, based on the name of the culture.
Peer comment(s):

neutral Evans (X) : I've read a lot about the Chumú empire, and I don't think you can use a term here that is not in accepted archaeological use.

The term is not "archeological per se-it refers to the culture, as I mentioned above.
