Artist's Description
A young Inca man kicking a balance in which the Spanish conquistadors are weighing gold. The Inca were fond of gold and silver and used it for ornaments and for decorating their temples and palaces. The Inca were one tribe of many in the region before they began conquering and assimilating their neighbors gold and silver may have been demanded as tribute from vassal cultures. The Inca also practiced basic mining, and as the Andes Mountains are rich in minerals, had accumulated a great deal of gold and silver by the time the Spaniards arrived. Most of the gold and silver stolen by the conquistadors was melted down, but a handful of the most beautiful pieces of Inca metalwork were sent along intact these were displayed for a time in Spain before they, too were melted down. It was a sad cultural loss for humanity.
