From Lake Titicaca to the Sun: The Incan Creation of the World
Manage episode 506930931 series 3668876
Long before the Spanish arrived, the Inca told a story of cosmic beginnings rooted in the sacred waters of Lake Titicaca. From the darkness emerged the god Viracocha, creator of earth, sky, sun, moon, and humankind. In this episode, we journey through the Incan vision of creation—how gods shaped mountains and valleys, brought order to chaos, and set the foundations of a civilization high in the Andes. Discover the mythic origins of the Inca world, where lakes, mountains, and the sun itself still carry the echoes of their divine beginnings.
