Description
One of the world's most splendid - and most mysterious- civilizations comes vividly to life in this anthology of 26 myths and legends, gathered from the 16th century chronicles of missionaries and conquistadores and from the reports of folklorists working in remote Andean villages of the Andes. The creation of the world, the rise of the Inca empire, the great wars of expansion, omens of doom, and the Spanish Conquest are among the themes woven into these stories, many of which are here translated into English for the first time.
