In what crafts and technical achievements did the inca excel?

1 answer:

8 0

The Inca culture was one of the most developed in pre-Columbian America. Among their achievements, was their architectural ability. Inca structures were made of stone that fit together, with extraordinary stability. The buildings have survived for centuries, with no use of mortar, in areas that are prone to earthquakes and volcanic activity.

The Inca also developed calendars based on astronomical observations. Astronomers understood equinoxes, solstices and zenith passages. Numerical information, particularly for administration, was stored in quipu strings.

In terms of art, Inca ceramics were highly advanced, although most of their silver and gold work was melted down by the Spaniards.

They were also advanced in medicine, performing skull surgeries successfully and with high survival rates.

topjm [15]

Answer:

The Battle of Okinawa (April 1, 1945-June 22, 1945) was the last major battle of World War II, and one of the bloodiest. On April 1, 1945—Easter Sunday—the Navy’s Fifth Fleet and more than 180,000 U.S. Army and U.S. Marine Corps troops descended on the Pacific island of Okinawa for a final push towards Japan. The invasion was part of Operation Iceberg, a complex plan to invade and occupy the Ryukyu Islands, including Okinawa. Though it resulted in an Allied victory, kamikaze fighters, rainy weather and fierce fighting on land, sea and air led to a large death toll on both sides.

How did the development of agriculture change the lives of early South American peoples? A. More groups moved near the coasts. B

____ [38]

The correct answer is: Option B. Groups started to settle in one place.

The practice of agriculture was the catalyzer for every civilization that migrated by the Bering Strait to develop permanent settlements in the Americas, the earliest of which are estimated to date back to 6500 B.C. near the Amazon Basin.

The most prominent groups to be identified in the South Americas as the early settles would be the Huaca Prieta in Peru (4700 B.C.), and the Valdivia in Ecuador (3500 B.C.).
