The Inca Empire's immense territory spanned more than 2,000 miles
-- from Ecuador to Chile -- at the time of the Spanish invasion,
yet Inca culture remains largely a mystery. The Incas did not leave
pictorial codices and documents in their native language as the
Maya and Aztec did and they narrated to Spanish chroniclers just a
few of the multiple alternative histories maintained by descendants
of various rulers. In this classic work, Nigel Davies offers a
clear view into Inca political history, economy, governance,
religion, art, architecture, and daily life. The Incas has become a
classic in its ten years in print; readers and scholars interested
in ancient American cultures will relish this new paperback
edition.
