Aye, I have commented in some of my history presentations on the incident. Funnily enough it probably provided the basis for countless stories in which "human sacrifices to be" are saved by predicting solar eclipses (or by the solar eclipses just happening at the right moment).
The hillarious part about these stories is that rather than people like the Arawak Indians they usually feature the Mayas (e.g. in the 2006 movie "Apocalypto" (history and Mel Gibson just don't get along)) whose knowledge in astronomy was probably much more advanced than that of the Europeans at the time. They would have been laughing their heads of had some conquistator claimed to be a God who could darken the sun and told him that they had known about the respective impending eclipse for centuries
