Inca Achievements If you went back in time and visited the Inca Empire you would probably surprised by what they’ve came up with. If you walked around the town you would probably have a chance of seeing Suspension Bridges and Surgeries being done. Well those two that I've just introduced you to those are some of the achievements of the Incas. I think that the Incas had the greatest achievements out of the three groups.

Suspension Bridges T he Incas built suspension bridges over rivers. They built suspension bridges so they could get to places faster and easier. It made of thick rope cables that were anchored at stone towers on either side of the river. This was very helpful to getting around easier.

Brain Surgery The Incas were remarkably advanced in medicine. The Inca priests were the ones who usually the ones that practiced the surgery's on the patients. The patient was usually an injured warrior. Priests cut into the patients skull to remove the bone fragment that were pressing against the brain. Many people survived the operation.

Gold Incas said that gold was the “ Sweat Of The Sun”. Gold Covered almost every inch inside a temple of the sun in the capital of Cuzco. Goldsmiths also made mask sculptures, knives and jewelry.

Argument As you went back in time and saw how the Incas made inventions. You could see how they influenced us on making more advanced technology. But if you went to the Aztec or Mayan Empire they did invent a couple things but not as advanced as the Incas. That’s why I think the Inca Empire is the one to visit.
