Jun. 17th, 2006 11:10 amHello there! A few of you have requested further reading on the fascinating Incas, and one person (not here) was questioning the undoubted fact that the Inca Royal Family were mummified. They were - and buried by the Spanish because it was idol worshipping.
These are a few titles I have found of interest over the years (the last 50, actually!) These are more recent studies if anyone is interested, but I feel I must point out that although my stories are fiction and therefore supposed to be FUN - I have only made up one major custom in these stories - now, go on, guess which it is!
"The Ice Maiden - Inca Mummies, Mountain Gods and Sacred Sites of the Andes", by Johan Reinard, National-Geographic-Explorer-in- Residence.
The Inca - Nigel Davies
The Lost City of Cuzco - Dr Nick Saunders
Inca Religion and Customs - Barnabo Cobo & roland Hamilton
History of the inca Realm - Maria Rotwarovski de Diaz Canseco
Inca Account of the Conquest of Peru = Titu Cusi Yupanqui & Ralph Bauer
Have fun - or...just read the stories. They'll tell you a LOT! xxxx
