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.
