The Incas : Peru - The Lost Civilizations

The Incas did not leave any written word.

The only testimony comes from the first conquistadores who collected the natives’ tales. Successors, among others, to brilliant civilisations preceding them, the Incas were originally a small tribe from the Quechua region on the bank of Lake Titicaca, between Peru and Bolivia.

They are part of a confederation of several groups, occupying at first a subordinate rank.

The confederation relied on two clans, the Hanan detaining political power, and the Hurin, the military power of which the Incas were part of. This shared power explains the Inca group’s rise to power by force.

It is only in during the mid-14th century that the Incas create a state bearing their name. Cuzco was the Inca capital for a long time, being the crossroads of the trans-Andean economical axis. It died down when economical activity turned towards Lima.

Machu Pichu is the ancient Inca city, dating back to the 15th century, perched on a rocky headland on the eastern central Andes.

Listed since 1983 on the UNESCO’s world heritage sites, it is also one of the Seven Wonders of the World.

Looking at the Incas’ daily lives, their rites and religious cults, we will explore the mystery and legends of this lost civilisation.

Why human sacrifices, why gold is the Inca’s symbolic metal, why worship the Sun? In this documentary we will attempt to solve these questions, with the help of experts on Latin America: Jean-Francois Bouchard, Patrice Lecoq and Carmen Bernand.

Where is Peru?

Full web article here:

Talk to anyone who has visited Peru and chances are pretty good that Machu Picchu will be the first topic to arise. But there is much more to Peru than this ancient Inca citadel. Miles of unspoiled beaches, hundreds of other archeological sites, colorful colonial cities, and dense tropical jungles provide unforgettable experiences to those who visit the rest of the country.

Civil War of Peru | BBC Studios

The real reason for the loss of such an industrious civilisation is uncovered. Although the Moche people survived years of sand storms and torturous drought, in the end their biggest enemy was the civilisation itself.

Peru - History, nature and food

After three months backpacking through Mexico, Colombia and Ecuador, we arrived in Peru.

Before arriving in the country, I didn’t know what to expect. Besides Machu Picchu and the good food, I didn’t know much about this country, although I had heard lots of backpackers saying how much they loved it. And so did we, as we ended up staying 7 weeks in this country.

Here are our stops:

- Mancora
- Lima
- Cuzco
- Machu Picchu
- Paracas
- Huacachina
- Nazca
- Ayacucho
- Arequipa
- Colca Canyon
- Puno

PERU TRAVEL AND PERU FACTS

Lima to Cusco
For somebody who loves to travel and traverse the world, their eyes are so valuable to reveal treasures. And properties that sprawl in the beauty of traveling. For the ones so blessed to go anywhere they want. You can hear tales so compelling and beautiful about places they have been through that you fall in love with it. Just by hearing about excellence, those places do offer. From an ordinary traveler to the most prosperous ones, there’s always this dream hidden inside the soul to explore the real beauty of nature — historical and geographical importance of the places allocated on this planet from general holidaymakers to those who rarely have a chance. Peru travel, Peru facts to Peruvian food. A journey to Lima to Cusco or exploring the depth of far-stretched Amazon forests. It’s a country worth traveling.

There’s always a current wishlist of points everyone needs to go and encounter the culture and beauty. As far as I have examined the part of this world, I consider Peru is the wishlist winner for several who love to progress and explore the world. And there are loads of reasons which I am striving to explain in the following episode.


Not all the people are rich enough to visit everywhere, not all the people got time to do so, people are busy at work or other commitments. But still, the people who can and don’t hold any barrier by their back are blessed. I travel not just to explore but to learn about the place, language, culture, and the hospitality people of that particular place offer. Its all about learning and a chance to educate yourself one way or the other.
Historical Grip
Lima to cusco | Peru travel | Peru facts | Peruvian food | Lima Peru
Lima in the early 19th century, near the Monastery of San Francisco

The earliest pieces of evidence of the human presence in Peruvian territory have found to roughly 9,000 BC. The most rapid known involved society in Peru, the Norte Chico culture, prospered onward the shore of the Pacific Ocean among 3,000 and 1,800 BC. These initial gains were followed by archaeological practices that originated mostly around the seaside and Andean areas everywhere in Peru. Importantly with a culture so vibrant and old, it demands you to breathe in the air it carries and the skies it owns, the rivers and jungles it holds. From great archeology to modern developments, it’s a masterpiece to explore and learn.
Geography
Lima to cusco | Peru travel | Peru facts | Peruvian food | Lima Peru
Peru is part of western South America. It adjoins Ecuador and Colombia to the north side, Brazil to the east side, Bolivia to the southeast, region, Chile to the south side, and the Pacific Ocean to the west. The Andes mountains go equal to the Pacific Ocean; they describe the three areas traditionally used to define the country geographically. The costa (coast), in the west, is a narrow plain. It is frequently parched except for valleys formed by seasonal rivers. The sierra (highlands) is the precinct of the Andes; it undoubtedly includes the Altiplano plateau as well as the highest peak of the country, the 6,768 m (22,205 ft). Huascarán. The third region is the selva (jungle), a vast expanse of flat terrain covered by the Amazon rain-forest that extends east. Almost 60 percent of the country’s area located within this region. Furthermore, the plane lands in most beautiful parts all-around to give every traveler a charm anyone can wish for or dream. Peru travel, Peru facts to Peruvian food. A journey to Lima to Cusco or exploring the depth of far-stretched Amazon forests. It’s a country worth traveling.
Culture
peru girl
Peruvian literature is rooted in the unwritten cultures of pre-Columbian improvements. The Spaniards began writing in the 16th century; colonial learned phrases included narratives and spiritual poetry. After liberation, Costumbrism and Romanticism converted the most prevalent literary styles, as illustrated in the works of Ricardo Palma. Such writers spanned the early 20th century’s Indigenismo drift as Ciro Alegría and José María Arguedas. César Vallejo composed a modernist and usually politically engaged verse. Modern Peruvian literature exists so thanks to artists such as Nobel laureate Mario Vargas Llosa, a foremost member of the Latin American Boom. Peru travel, Peru facts to Peruvian food. A journey to Lima to Cusco or exploring the depth of far-stretched Amazon forests. It’s a country worth traveling.
