ancient inca civilization
The ancient Inca civilization refers to a highly advanced indigenous society that thrived in the Andes region of South America during the 15th and 16th centuries. It was characterized by a sophisticated social, political, and economic organization, marked by the construction of magnificent cities, extensive road networks, and a complex agricultural system. The Incas were known for their skilled craftsmanship, notably in stone masonry, textiles, and metalwork. Their empire was governed by a centralized authority and they had a distinctive religious belief system centered around the worship of nature and their deities. The Inca civilization was abruptly disrupted by the arrival of Spanish conquistadors in the 16th century.
