The Andean Tradition
The Incas, who date back only several hundred years, conquered a territory that encompassed the Andes mountains, stretching through Peru, Bolivia, Argentina all the way up to Chile, incorporating in their Empire many different cultures, including the Moche, Chimus, Amaru, Quechua and Huari to name but a few. The seat of the Empire was held in Cuzco (the naval) in Peru, a location chosen by Manco Capac, the original Inca, and his female counterpart Mama Oclla.
These cultures were not destroyed as they were incorporated, rather the best from each was upheld and honoured and made up a active part of the daily running of the Empire, for example if a culture was advanced in weaving, they would become the master weavers and would teach their skill throughout the empire. The same was true of the spiritual beliefs of the various cultures and so the spiritual traditions of the Andes was preserved, hence the Ancient Andean Tradition dates back almost 14 000 years.
