The Incas, Inca History



The Incas


Left no written or recorded track, so most of the current information comes from the Spanish side. Even the Spanish lacked the mental openness to understand what they were seeing. Spain sixteenth century was a fanatical Christian nation not known for embracing different worldviews.

Chroniclers were also trying to resolve the ambiguities of the Inca Empire, poor quality and biases that distort interpreters and native informants often dubious reliability desperate for survival reasons, to ingratiate himself with his interrogators. And the Spanish came amid hear many contradictory versions of the Inca rulers. All our versions of the Incas fit in the minds of Western cultural frameworks relatives. However, the Incas were singularly Andina, and very different from other advanced civilizations in history. So modern accounts of the Incas should carry a warning: "If you want the unshakable truth, invent a better travel time".

Strict world order: the Inca society was clearly hierarchical and highly structured, but not necessarily tyrannical and repressive. Everyone had a place in the Inca world and a role to play. Life was not easy, but the food and resources is stored and distributed so that all were fed and clothed. There was no private property, and everything was organized communally. It may have been a society in which the majority accepted his role without feeling oppressed or exploited.
