Gli Inca

Synopsis of Gli Inca

This book offers a deep and accessible analysis of the Inca Empire, the largest indigenous state in Latin America. Through a sociological perspective, Henri Favre explores everything from its tribal origins in the Cuzco valley to the complex administrative, economic, and military organization that characterized this civilization before its fall to the Spanish conquistadors in the 16th century. It is a fundamental work for understanding the culture, architecture, and astronomical knowledge of a people whose influence endures to this day.
