This illustration dates to the early 1900s and shows “Peruvian Warriors of the Inca Period.” It is copied from a Peruvian painting dating to the ancient Peruvian time of the Inca. The Inca Empire (1438-1533), also known as the Incan Empire and the Inka Empire, was the largest empire in pre-Columbian America. Its political and administrative structure is considered by most scholars to have been the most developed in the Americas before Columbus' arrival.
