Customer Reviews

Very scholarly, not many myths

The author is a noted and respected figure in the field of Latin American studies. This book presents the history of the chroniclers who wrote down Inca myths from the Inca after the invasion of the Spanish. Much time is spent around the methods and names of the chroniclers. Unfortunately, beyond the Inca creation myths, there is not much here for research relative to the books title.
