Ancient American Pre-Columbian Civilization
The document summarizes three major pre-Columbian civilizations: the Mayans, Aztecs, and Incas. It provides details on the location, religion, achievements, and possible reasons for decline for each civilization. The Mayans inhabited northern Central America and had a sophisticated writing system and calendar. The Aztecs ruled central Mexico from their capital of Tenochtitlan and practiced human sacrifice. The Incas built an extensive road system and impressive stone structures in the Andes Mountains. All three civilizations declined following the arrival of European explorers and colonizers like Hernan Cortes and Francisco Pizarro.
Incas overview
The Inca Empire experienced civil war following the death of the emperor Huayna Capac, weakening the empire just as Spanish conquistador Francisco Pizarro arrived in 1532. Pizarro, along with just 168 men, was able to defeat the Inca army and capture the Inca ruler Atahualpa, bringing much of the empire under Spanish control. A rebellion led by Manco Inca in 1536 failed to drive the Spanish out, resulting in the fall of the Inca Empire and 300 years of Spanish rule over Peru.
The inca Architecture
The Inca civilization flourished in Peru from around 1200-1532 AD, growing from a small kingdom centered around Cuzco into a vast empire spanning South America. Under leaders like Pachacuti and Topa Inca, the Incas expanded their territory through conquest and developed policies to integrate conquered peoples. The Incas built impressive infrastructure like roads, suspension bridges, and temples, and were renowned for their precise stonework. However, the empire fell into civil war in the 1530s, allowing the Spanish, led by Francisco Pizarro, to defeat the Incas and destroy their civilization within several decades of their arrival.

Machupicchu By Rcdohare
Machu Picchu is the most visited tourist attraction in Peru, located 70km northwest of Cusco in the Andes mountains. It was built in the 15th century as an urban settlement of the Inca Empire but was abandoned just over 100 years later as the Spanish conquered the Inca. Although largely forgotten, Machu Picchu was brought to international attention in 1911 by historian Hiram Bingham. It consists of over 140 structures and was likely used for both religious and residential purposes by the Incas. Today, it remains an important tourist site and source of revenue for Peru.
