520    The Inca Empire existed for fewer than 100 years, yet 
       ruled more subjects than either the Aztecs or the Maya and
       occupied a territory stretching nearly 3000 miles. The 
       Incas left no system of writing; what we know of them has 
       been gleaned from the archaeological record and accounts 
       written following the Spanish invasion. In this A-to-Z 
       encyclopedia, Gary Urton and Adriana von Hagen, together 
       with over thirty contributors, provide a broad 
       introduction to the fascinating civilization of the Incas,
       including their settlements, culture, society, 
       celebrations, and achievements. Following a broad 
       introduction, 128 individual entries explore wide-ranging 
       themes (religion, architecture, farming) and specific 
       topics (ceremonial drinking cup, astronomy), interweaving 
       ethnohistoric and archaeological research with nuanced 
       interpretation. Each entry provides suggestions for 
       further reading. Sidebars profiling chroniclers and 
       researchers of Inca life#x14;ranging from Još de Acosta 
       and Crist̤bal de Albornoz to Maria Rostworowski and R. Tom 
       Zuidema#x14;add depth and context for the cultural 
       entries. Cross-references, alphabetical and topical lists 
       of entries, and a thorough index help readers navigate the
       volume. A chronology, selected bibliography, regional map,
       and almost ninety illustrations round out the volume. In 
       sum, the Encyclopedia of the Incas provides a unique, 
       comprehensive resource for scholars, as well as the 
       general public, to explore the civilization of the 
       Incas#x14;the largest empire of the pre-Columbian New 
       World.
