What were Inca tradtions?

Answer 1

Inca clothing was closely related to a person's status in society. It was regarded a privilege to wear clothing. Their clothing was made of wool or cotton depending on the location and was usually woven or knitted. Most people wore loosely fitted tunics which were held together by metal pins.

The common people's clothing was rather plain and the upper class wore brighter colors, sandals and jewelry. Beads and feathers were worn by the wealthy. Face and body paint was readily used as a ceremonial custom. Inca men and women always married in the same social class.

It was improper to marry someone richer or poorer. Inca brides were bought with a dowry. The bride's parents would choose a husband based on the price offered. The groom's parents did the negotiating with the bride's parents.

Once a deal was made, both sets of parents planned the wedding. Weddings were simple with the couple holding hands and exchanging sandals at the end of the ceremony. A feast was usually held afterward.
