Sitemang Pang ekonomiya 
 the Toltec Empire were mainly agricultural; they depended on several crops to 
sustain life. They were able to grow beans, squash, and cacti. The cacti grew fruit 
that the people could eat; they didn't actually eat the cactus. Their diet also 
included the meat of rabbits and dogs. The main crop was maize (corn). They 
depended mainly on these crops but they also traded goods with other regions. 
 Much of what was traded was the artwork of the Toltecs. The people made small 
personal ornaments and small statues that could be traded easily. The people also 
were skilled in pottery and textiles. Another valuable trade resource was metal and 
stone tools because the location of the Teotihuacan Empire was in the immediate 
vicinity of the richest Mesoamerican deposits of exceptional obsidian. The Toltec 
people were among the first that we know of that were skilled in metalworking.

Toltec Arts 
This is a depiction of a 
religious or governmental 
leader. This shows that the 
Toltec were not necessarily 
concerned with proper or 
realistic proportion. They 
also were not interested in 
idealizing people. The nose 
on this sculpture is rather 
large also. This is because 
the rulers or other such 
important people would wear 
large nose pieces to 
elongate the nose. The 
reason for this is not known, 
but perhaps they felt it was a 
sign of wealth, a sign of 
virtue and honesty, or maybe

of the position or the statue itself 
remains unknown. 
• Chac-Mool statues are found in

other post-Classic central 
Mexican sites, and in post- 
Classic Maya civilization sites

as Chichen Itza.
Toltec Art 
This stone panel depicts 
and eagle consuming a 
human heart. In the Toltec 
culture, eagles in the sky 
represented the sun. The 
sun needed energy and 
strength to survive the 
perilous nightly trek 
through the underworld to 
rise again each morning. It 
was the humans’ 
responsibility to provide 
food for the sun in the form 
of human heart or blood.

Heograpiya ng South America 
 Hilaga – matatagpuan ang Amazon River na 
dumadaloy sa mayayabong na kagubatan 
 Timog – Mga praire at steppe sa Andes Mountain 
 Kanluran – tuyot na mga disyeto sa gulod ng mga 
bundok na nakahilera sa sa Pacific Ocean.
Three Geograpical Regions 
 Andes Mountains: North to south were the Andes 
Mountains - home of the Inca civilization. The 
mountains dominated Incan society. The mountain 
peaks were worshiped as gods. 
The Andes created a natural barrier between the 
coastal desert on one side and the jungle on the other. 
The snow-capped mountains were full of deep gorges. 
The Inca built bridges across the gorges so they 
could reach all parts of their empire quickly and easily. 
These mountain gorges were natural barriers. If an 
enemy approached, the Incas could simply burn the 
bridges.
Three Geograpical Regions 
 Amazon Jungle: On one side of the Andes was the Amazon 
jungle. The Incas must have entered the jungle occasionally, as 
they did know about the many valuable things that could be 
found in the Amazon, like wood and fruit and natural medicines. 
But they never established settlements there. They had no desire 
to live in the jungle. The Incas expanded north and south 
instead. 
 Coastal Desert: Between the mountains and the Pacific Ocean 
is a coastal desert 2000 miles long and between 30-100 miles 
wide. The desert provided a wonderful natural barrier. Some 
scientists think it is the driest place in the world. It is not 
completely barren. There are fertile strips where small rivers and 
streams run from the Andes mountaintops to the sea.

ruins
The Sacred Valley of the Incas is a 
valley in the Southern Sierra in Peru 
that contains many famous and 
beautiful Inca ruins. It was called the 
Sacred Valley because it contains 
some of the best land in the region 
and was not a part of the Empire but 
the property of the Emperor or Inca
Sacred Valley of the Inca 
The valley of Urubamba, 
situated close to Cusco was the agricultural 
larder of Cuzco in Inca times. 
The valley is renowned for its 
excellent climate, fertile lands and the waters 
of the sacred river of the Inca, the Vilcanota 
(in Quechua: sacred or wonderful thing) that, 
in the town of Urubamba, the river changes 
its name to the UrubambaRiver. 
The "Valle Sagrado" is 
embraced between the towns of Písac and 
Ollantaytambo, and has wonderful 
landscapes where its inhabitants, native of 
the Quechua ethnic group, conserve many 
customs, traditions and ancestral rites. 
It is an area where you can 
appreciate the high technological 
development that the Inca reached in terms 
of agriculture through the "andenería" 
systems (platform terraces). These systems 
are still in use today and show sophisticated 
designs of hydraulic engineering for irrigation 
purposes. They were also outstanding 
adoration centers to the Pachamama (or 
mother earth).
MANCO 
CAPAC Once upon a time, a long time ago, Inti, the sun god, created the first 
Incan, and named him Manco Capac. The sun god created a sister for Manco. The 
sister did not have a name of her own. She was simply called "his sister". The sun god 
told Manco and his sister to go on a journey. Their job was to search high and low for a 
special place, a placed called Cuzco. The sun god gave Manco a golden staff. 
The sun god said, "You will know that you have found Cuzco when the staff is 
swallowed by the earth. When you find it, you will build a city and name it Cuzco. In 
this special city, you will teach other Indians about the power of the sun god." 
Because no one argued with the sun god, Manco Capac and his sister 
immediately traveled into the harsh Andes Mountains (referred to in this myth as "the 
wilderness".) Things were looking pretty grim. Over and over they tried, but they could 
not find a place where the golden staff sank into the ground. 
One day, they stumbled upon a most beautiful location, the most 
beautiful location they had ever seen. When Manco tested the ground, his staff sank 
immediately out of sight, just as the sun god had foretold. Manco Capac and his sister 
built their city on that spot. They named their city Cuzco. 
There were other tribes in the area, but Manco soon took over leadership of all the 
tribes. Manco became the first ruler of the Incas. That's how Cuzco became the capital 
of the Incan empire. 
Manco went on to have 400 children. When Manco died at a very old age, the Incas 
built the Temple of the Sun on the spot where he died.

 Naniniwala sa Life after Death -

Relihiyon 
 The Incas also worshiped huacas - 
sacred places or objects. Huacas were 
everywhere. A huaca could be a large 
building, or a tiny statue that fit in the 
palm of your hand. Every family said daily 
prayers to little family huacas. Priests 
performed daily ceremonies at the 
temples, offering prayers to the huacas in 
their care. 
Festivals: Every month, the Incas held a 
major religious festival. Festivals were 
held outside. Games, songs, dancing, 
food, parades, and sacrifice (of animals 
usually) were all part of the festivities. If 
something special was happening, like 
the crowning of a new emperor or a 
drought, the Incas would include human 
sacrifice as part of the festival.
Apu Illapu was the rain god, an agricultural deity whom people would pray to when they needed rain. The 
Inca believed his shadow was in the Milky Way, where he drew the water that he poured down to earth as 
rain. 
Ayar Cachi was a god with a very hot temper. He was so difficult that his brother Manco Capac 
and sister Mama Occlo locked him up in a cave. He still sits in that cave about 30 kilometres from Cuzco (a 
city in Peru) and tries to get out every now and then. Local people believe this causes earthquakes in the 
area. 
Illapa was the goddess of thunder and lightning. When she came to earth she became 
Yakumama, the goddess of water and rivers. 
Inti was the sun god and the patron deity of the holy city of Cuzco, home of the sun. He was the 
patron god of the Incas and especially worshipped by farmers who needed his warmth and light to grow 
crops. Inti was represented with a human face in a great disk and is found on many temples. 
K'uychi was the rainbow god. This deity was connected with fertility. He was the heavenly form 
of the goddess Sach'mama, the Mother Tree. 
Mama Kilya was the wife of the sun god Inti. She was the Moon Mother who regulated women's 
menstrual cycles. 
Mama Occlo was the sister of Manco Capac chosen by Pachacamac for her wisdom to civilize 
the people. She taught the women how to weave cloth and build houses.
Manco Capac was Pachacamac's son, celebrated for his courage. He was sent to earth to 
become the first king of the Incas. He taught his people how to grow plants, make weapons, 
work together, share resources and worship the gods. 
Pachacamac was the creator god of the Inca, also known as Viracocha. He was the 
sky god who created the sun, the moon and the people. He brought Manco Capac and Mama 
Occlo to the world to civilize people and teach them skills such as farming and crafts. 
Pachamama was the goddess of the earth or earth mother and wife of Pachacamac. 
She is still the object of a cult all over the Andean mountains where people make her offerings of 
coca leaf and 'chicha' beer and pray to her on all major agricultural occasions. 
Qochamama was the goddess of the sea or Sea Mother, especially worshipped in the 
coastal regions. 
Sach'amama means Mother Tree. She was a goddess in the shape of a snake with 
two heads. When she passed on to the heavenly world she transformed into K'uychi. 
Yakumama means Mother Water. This water goddess was portrayed as a snake. 
When she came to the earth's surface, she transformed into a great river. She could also pass to 
the upper world. In that shape she was called Illapa meaning thunder and lightning.

    Three Geograpical Regions  Andes Mountains: North to south were the Andes Mountains - home of the Inca civilization. The mountains dominated Incan society. The mountain peaks were worshiped as gods. The Andes created a natural barrier between the coastal desert on one side and the jungle on the other. The snow-capped mountains were full of deep gorges. The Inca built bridges across the gorges so they could reach all parts of their empire quickly and easily. These mountain gorges were natural barriers. If an enemy approached, the Incas could simply burn the bridges.

    Three Geograpical Regions  Amazon Jungle: On one side of the Andes was the Amazon jungle. The Incas must have entered the jungle occasionally, as they did know about the many valuable things that could be found in the Amazon, like wood and fruit and natural medicines. But they never established settlements there. They had no desire to live in the jungle. The Incas expanded north and south instead.  Coastal Desert: Between the mountains and the Pacific Ocean is a coastal desert 2000 miles long and between 30-100 miles wide. The desert provided a wonderful natural barrier. Some scientists think it is the driest place in the world. It is not completely barren. There are fertile strips where small rivers and streams run from the Andes mountaintops to the sea.

    Sacred Valley ofthe Inca The valley of Urubamba, situated close to Cusco was the agricultural larder of Cuzco in Inca times. The valley is renowned for its excellent climate, fertile lands and the waters of the sacred river of the Inca, the Vilcanota (in Quechua: sacred or wonderful thing) that, in the town of Urubamba, the river changes its name to the UrubambaRiver. The "Valle Sagrado" is embraced between the towns of Písac and Ollantaytambo, and has wonderful landscapes where its inhabitants, native of the Quechua ethnic group, conserve many customs, traditions and ancestral rites. It is an area where you can appreciate the high technological development that the Inca reached in terms of agriculture through the "andenería" systems (platform terraces). These systems are still in use today and show sophisticated designs of hydraulic engineering for irrigation purposes. They were also outstanding adoration centers to the Pachamama (or mother earth).

    MANCO CAPAC Onceupon a time, a long time ago, Inti, the sun god, created the first Incan, and named him Manco Capac. The sun god created a sister for Manco. The sister did not have a name of her own. She was simply called "his sister". The sun god told Manco and his sister to go on a journey. Their job was to search high and low for a special place, a placed called Cuzco. The sun god gave Manco a golden staff. The sun god said, "You will know that you have found Cuzco when the staff is swallowed by the earth. When you find it, you will build a city and name it Cuzco. In this special city, you will teach other Indians about the power of the sun god." Because no one argued with the sun god, Manco Capac and his sister immediately traveled into the harsh Andes Mountains (referred to in this myth as "the wilderness".) Things were looking pretty grim. Over and over they tried, but they could not find a place where the golden staff sank into the ground. One day, they stumbled upon a most beautiful location, the most beautiful location they had ever seen. When Manco tested the ground, his staff sank immediately out of sight, just as the sun god had foretold. Manco Capac and his sister built their city on that spot. They named their city Cuzco. There were other tribes in the area, but Manco soon took over leadership of all the tribes. Manco became the first ruler of the Incas. That's how Cuzco became the capital of the Incan empire. Manco went on to have 400 children. When Manco died at a very old age, the Incas built the Temple of the Sun on the spot where he died.

    Relihiyon  TheIncas also worshiped huacas - sacred places or objects. Huacas were everywhere. A huaca could be a large building, or a tiny statue that fit in the palm of your hand. Every family said daily prayers to little family huacas. Priests performed daily ceremonies at the temples, offering prayers to the huacas in their care. Festivals: Every month, the Incas held a major religious festival. Festivals were held outside. Games, songs, dancing, food, parades, and sacrifice (of animals usually) were all part of the festivities. If something special was happening, like the crowning of a new emperor or a drought, the Incas would include human sacrifice as part of the festival.

    Apu Illapu wasthe rain god, an agricultural deity whom people would pray to when they needed rain. The Inca believed his shadow was in the Milky Way, where he drew the water that he poured down to earth as rain. Ayar Cachi was a god with a very hot temper. He was so difficult that his brother Manco Capac and sister Mama Occlo locked him up in a cave. He still sits in that cave about 30 kilometres from Cuzco (a city in Peru) and tries to get out every now and then. Local people believe this causes earthquakes in the area. Illapa was the goddess of thunder and lightning. When she came to earth she became Yakumama, the goddess of water and rivers. Inti was the sun god and the patron deity of the holy city of Cuzco, home of the sun. He was the patron god of the Incas and especially worshipped by farmers who needed his warmth and light to grow crops. Inti was represented with a human face in a great disk and is found on many temples. K'uychi was the rainbow god. This deity was connected with fertility. He was the heavenly form of the goddess Sach'mama, the Mother Tree. Mama Kilya was the wife of the sun god Inti. She was the Moon Mother who regulated women's menstrual cycles. Mama Occlo was the sister of Manco Capac chosen by Pachacamac for her wisdom to civilize the people. She taught the women how to weave cloth and build houses.

    Manco Capac wasPachacamac's son, celebrated for his courage. He was sent to earth to become the first king of the Incas. He taught his people how to grow plants, make weapons, work together, share resources and worship the gods. Pachacamac was the creator god of the Inca, also known as Viracocha. He was the sky god who created the sun, the moon and the people. He brought Manco Capac and Mama Occlo to the world to civilize people and teach them skills such as farming and crafts. Pachamama was the goddess of the earth or earth mother and wife of Pachacamac. She is still the object of a cult all over the Andean mountains where people make her offerings of coca leaf and 'chicha' beer and pray to her on all major agricultural occasions. Qochamama was the goddess of the sea or Sea Mother, especially worshipped in the coastal regions. Sach'amama means Mother Tree. She was a goddess in the shape of a snake with two heads. When she passed on to the heavenly world she transformed into K'uychi. Yakumama means Mother Water. This water goddess was portrayed as a snake. When she came to the earth's surface, she transformed into a great river. She could also pass to the upper world. In that shape she was called Illapa meaning thunder and lightning.
