Prepare to embark on a journey back in time into the realm of the unknown with the conquistadores and Francisco Pizarro as “Inca Gold” relates the fascinating and engrossing story of an indigenous people, their social structure, culture, religion, military, administration, myths, legends and conquest. With the aid of historical resources gain knowledge of unfathomable and unparalleled events that transpired during this epoch of pillaging, looting, kidnapping, torture, murder, rape, and destruction of cultural heritage, all fueled by the Kingdom of Spain’s insatiable lust for Inca gold. Eyewitness accounts of the Incan conquest and of Inca Atahualpa’s capture, ransom, murder and much more are related in awe inspiring detail. Not merely a story about the conquest of a civilization, but also of the legends that subjugation inspired, including the legend of Valverde’s gold spirited into the Llanganati Mountains of Ecuador creating the legendary Llanganati treasure deposit!
