THE LOST GODS:
INCAS


The Inca worshiped both a creator god and the sun, moon and stars. Travel to the Peruvian Andes to explore the remnants of Inca civilization: the city of Pisac, which was designed in the shape of a sacred animal; Cajamarca, where Atahualpa was murdered by the Spaniards; and the sacred mountaintop city of Machu Picchu.
