Del valle del Cuzco, en el corazón del Perú, surgió el imperio más formidable de la historia de Sudamérica, que floreció durante 100 años y logró asombrosas hazañas militares, tecnológicas, políticas, arquitectónicas (¡Machu Picchu!) y artísticas. Un imperio cuyo legado ha sido reconocido como Patrimonio de la Humanidad. El imperio de los hijos del Sol. El Imperio inca, el Tahuantinsuyo.Este libro, creado de la mano del Museo de Arte de Lima — MALI, presenta la fascinante historia del auge y caída del Imperio inca: cómo empezó, quiénes y cómo lo crearon, qué construyeron, cómo lo administraron, cómo era la vida cotidiana de sus pueblos, cómo eran sus ejércitos, y por qué dejó de existir. Una historia que, tras décadas de nuevas investigaciones y descubrimientos, amerita ser revisitada. Una gran historia.
