“U.S archeologist Brian Bauer has long been interested in the origins of the Inca Empire. When he began his studies in the 1980s, most historians believed that a brilliant, young Andean named Pachutec became the first Inca king in the early 1400s. They believed he transformed a small collection of mud huts into a mighty empire in just one generation. Bauer didn’t buy it. He was certain the Inca Dynasty had far deeper roots and was determined to find proof.”

“This new evidence proved the Inca state has risen much earlier than previously believed - sometime between 1200 and 1300.”

This section of the text connects to the study of the Americas/Inca empire because it strikes a different train of thought, making us want to maybe change our minds on whether it’s through the 1400s and 1500s or 1200s and 1300s.

This quote was very interesting to me and I felt it was worth sharing because it showed that this archeologist (Brian Bauer) went against what many other people in his field and said that he believed what they were saying wasn’t factual and he was determined to find proof.

Why I think my quote is worth sharing because I feel that all of the quotes that were posted provided a lot of important information that we have learned in Global History.

What I think about this quote is sometimes people could have evidence that proves one thing, but new evidence could prove another. It is worth sharing because it proves that sometimes you have to find more evidence. What I mean by that is you may have evidence that proves chocolate ice cream was created at this time, but new evidence could prove chocolate ice cream was created at a different time. What made this stand out because this is something that normal happens with historians when they want to find information about past civilizations.

How this section of the text connects to our on going study of the Americas/Inca Empire is that in this section it is providing lots of information of what we are expected to learn from the section about the Americas/Inca Empire.

It’s worth sharing because it’s a quote that says information and gives light to the old rulers.
