Human hair khipus reveal Inca record-keeping was used by both elites and commoners
A recently studied 500-year-old Inca khipu (Quipu) has overturned assumptions about who created these intricate thread-based documents. The study, published in Science Advances, suggests that khipus—formerly thought to be the domain of high-level imperial officials—were also made by non-elite members of society...More info: https://archaeologymag.com/2025/08/human-hair-khipus-used-by-elites-and-commoners/

1200 - 1533 - The mysterious and wonderful Inca demonstrate the peak of South American human development before contact with the Old World, and such is their legacy that important remnants of their culture remain part of the fabric of Peru to this day.

On 26th July 1533, the Spanish killed the Inca emperor Atahualpa by garrotting him. They threw the body in an unmarked grave, which devastated the Incas as the emperor needed to be mummified in order for his soul to pass over into the next stage of life and for his son Topatauchi to succeed him as emperor.
NB: Some historians state that the date was actually 28.8.1533.For more, https://books2read.com/incatastic

Happy Equinox!
(Description: Every September equinox, when the rainy season started, the Inca celebrated Coya Raymi (meaning festival of the empress). This festival honoured the empress (the coya) and also Killa, the moon goddess. The mummies of previous emperors and empresses were paraded through the streets and given offerings.)

The Spanish overcame the #IncaEmpire in 1 day by capturing the emperor Atahualpa.
Fake news! It was a process that took decades of battles.
E.g. in April 1536, Manco Inca escaped from the Spanish, rescued his principal wife, Curi Ocllo, & fled #Cusco to plan a #rebellion.
Exactly 3 years later, in April 1539, Gonzalo Pizarro set out to capture the rebels.
Would Manco & Curi survive his pursuit?
