THE INKA EMPIRE AND ITS ANDEAN ORIGINS
By Craig Morris and Adriana von Hagen Object photographs by John Bigelow Taylor
Sponsored by the American Museum of Natural History, this fascinating illustrated history of the Inka and their predecessors is a major new appraisal of a remarkable civilization. Based on recent archaeological studies, this story of the Andean peoples traces the development of their civilization from its beginnings some 11,000 years ago to its culmination—the vast and powerful Inka Empire— in the sixteenth century. The text describes their agricultural methods, social organization, political structure, religious beliefs, ceremonial practices, technologies, and artistic expression. Their achievements include woven cloth of unsurpassed beauty; ceramics and metalwork of stunning originality; monumental buildings constructed at the time the pyramids were being built in Egypt; and early empires that rival those of the Old World in size and scope.

The text describes their agricultural methods, social organization, political structure, religious beliefs, ceremonial practices, technologies, and artistic expression. Their achievements include woven cloth of unsurpassed beauty; ceramics and metalwork of stunning originality; monumental buildings constructed at the time the pyramids were being built in Egypt; and early empires that rival those of the Old World in size and scope.
The objects used to illustrate this volume are taken from the Museum's Hall of South American Peoples, which houses the largest collection of Andean objects of any museum in the United States. Supplementing these superb pictures are panoramas of the spectacular and diverse land inhabited by the Inka and the equally remarkable cultures that preceded them.
