After colonization by the Spanish, the Inca Empire faced significant cultural, social, and economic impacts. The indigenous population experienced loss of cultural practices and identity, forced conversion to Christianity, and exploitation for labor and resources. The introduction of new diseases and the exploitation of native peoples led to a drastic decline in population.
The Inca civilization was encountered by Spanish conquistadors led by Francisco Pizarro in 1532. Pizarro's conquest led to the downfall of the Inca Empire.
The Spanish Conquest of the Incas resulted in short-term devastation, including violence, disease, and loss of territory. In the long term, it led to the eventual collapse of the Inca Empire, cultural assimilation, and the introduction of Spanish influence and institutions in the region.
Inca temples were primarily made out of stone, with finely cut and fitted stones held together without mortar. The most famous example is the Inca temple of Coricancha in Cusco, which was covered in gold and considered the most important temple in the Inca Empire.
