Ep. 3: Los Moche

¡Bienvenidos una vez más a La historia de los Incas!En este episodio veremos la primera de las cuatro sociedades andinas que existieron antes del Inca, los Moche.Los Moche fueron una cultura que habitó la costa norte del Perú hasta alrededor de los años 800 después de Cristo. Hay mucho sobre esta sociedad que no conocemos, pero discutiremos su posible estructura administrativa, ceremonias y el camino hacia su desaparición. Aunque esta zona está más relacionada con el estado Chimú posterior que con el Inca, este episodio cubrirá varios temas (huacas, sacrificio, vida costera y proliferación religiosa) a los que nos referiremos una y otra vez.Siga el programa en Twitter @Incapodcast, encuéntranos en nuestra página de Facebook: A History of the Inca o visite nuestra página web: ahistoryoftheinca.wordpress.com.

A History of the Inca is a historical podcast focusing on one of the largest empires in pre-columbian America. The Inca were the culmination of civilization in the Andes Mountains.

We will learn of the Inca origins and how they were but one of many ethnic groups carving out a living miles above sea level. From their beginnings as a small ethnic group we will march with their armies as they set out to expand their rule over Andes. We dissect their administration and government while also looking at how ordinary people fared under the empire. When seemingly at its height, the Inca see the Spanish arrive. And though some end the rule of the Inca with the Spanish conquistadores, there is much more to the story…
