Okay... from _Libro del Arte de Cozina_, 1599:

Pastel de conejo de las Indias -- Pastry of Rabbit of the Indies
(Guinea Pig)

The rabbit of India must be scalded with hot water in the manner 
that one scalds suckling pigs, or it must be flayed, remove the 
entrails, and stuff it like the domestic rabbit, and cover it with 
pastry, as we said in the previous chapter.

[The previous "chapter" is a recipe for rabbit pie, and it goes as 
follows:]

To Make Pastry of Domestic Rabbits

Take the rabbit and cut off the head, and the feet, take out the 
entrails and wash it with many waters, and stuff it with a mixture 
made of chopped lard, ham, and its liver cleaned of the bile, mint, 
chopped marjoram, sour grapes, pepper, cinnamon, cloves, 
nutmeg, and salt, raw egg yolks, and when it is full sew up the 
opening, and the rabbit sprinkled with the said mixture, put it in a 
pastry made in the manner of "nauezilla" with some little slices of 
bacon underneath, having taken out the legs, put them upon the 
rabbit with as many more little slices of fat pork, and sprinkle all 
with the same spices, cover the pastry, and make it cook in the 
oven, and serve it hot.
