### Dataset Summary
 We present Monolingual-Quechua-IIC, a monolingual corpus of Southern Quechua, which can be used to build language models using Transformers models. This corpus also includes the Wiki and OSCAR corpora. We used this corpus to build Llama-RoBERTa-Quechua, the first language model for Southern Quechua using Transformers.
