Notes: This website gave a lot of information about specific Inca beliefs. It talked about there two most important gods: inti, the god of the sun, and Pachama, the mother of the earth. They also believed that time was sacred and that the past, present and future all represented different spiritual demension. They had different religious ceremonies each month. One thing that i found really interesting is that the Incas did actually do human sacrifices. They would sometimes sacrifice two hundred children. The hierarchy of their society goes (king), (priests and royal family), (architects and regional army commanders), and (artisans, army captains, farmers and herders).
