Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 152
Book Description
Some of the most interesting and mysterious people of the ancient world were the Incas. They were located in South America, primarily in Peru. The author was once the curator of Peruvian Archaeology at a major museum, so had access to many artifacts that are displayed in this book. We are shown what life was like for an ancient Incan warrior, priest, astronomer, housewife or leader. Also covered are the mysterious ruins of Tiahuanaco, the huge network of ancient Inca Roads, and their method of record-keeping, without using any written language, is revealed.

The Incas
Author: Gordon F Mcewan
Publisher: W. W. Norton & Company
ISBN: 9780393333015
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 292
Book Description
The Incas: New Perspectives offers a revealing portrait of the ancient Andean empire from the earliest stages of its development to its final capitulation to Pizzarro in the mid-16th century. In recent years researchers have employed new tools to get to the heart of the mysterious Inca culture. Drawing on recent work in archaeology, anthropology, ethnohistory, and other sources, The Incas provides the most up-to-date interpretations of Inca culture, religion, politics, economics, and daily life available. Readers will discover how the Incas discovered medicines still in use and kept records using knotted cords; how Inca builders created masterful highways and stone bridges; and how the inhabitants of seemingly unfarmable lands came to give the world potatoes, beans, corn, squashes, tomatoes, avocados, peanuts, and peppers. --Publisher.
