History of the Incas In some cases, these languages were taught to peoples who had originally spoken other indigenous languages. Today, Quechua and Aymara remain the most widespread Amerindian languages. The legend of the Inca has served as inspiration for resistance movements in the region. These include the 1780 rebellion led by Tupac Amaru II against the Spanish, as well as contemporary the guerrilla movements Túpac Amaru Revolutionary Movement (MRTA) and Sendero Luminoso in Peru and Tupamaros in Uruguay. History of the Incas The Incas were most notable for establishing the Inca Empire in pre-Columbian America, which was centered in what is now Peru
Geometry from the Land of the Incas Geometry from the Land of the Incas Geometry from the Land of the Incas is a free geometry website funded by advertising, aimed mainly at high school and college age students. Developed by Antonio Gutierrez, the site uses sound, dynamic geometry, animations, science, and Incan history with the goal of raising students' interest in Euclidean geometry. Numerous problems are presented with step-by-step solutions for each proof. Around 2003, the website won several minor awards from educational publications, including One of the Top 10 educational Web Sites Canada's SchoolNet's in 2003 , the Knot #284 Canadian Mathematical Society , NCTM Illuminations
