The epic tale of the Inca Emperors has always been told by their worst enemies, the conquistadors. In the absence of desipherable writings for Europeans, their official history was for centuries reduced to the accounts of Spanish chroniclers who has every reason to twist reality to their advantage. Today, archaeologists are challenging those accounts and raising new questions.&nbsp;Were the Inca really bloodthirsty warriors? Did they truly build a vast empire without the use of writing? Does the myth of gold contain a grain of truth?
