Description
English: Inca road system. Among the many roads and trails constructed in pre-Columbian South America, the Inca road system (El Camino Inca) of Peru was the most extensive. Traversing the Andes mountains and reaching heights of over 5,000 m (16,500 feet) above sea level, the trails connected the regions of the Inca Empire from the northern provincial capital in Quito, Ecuador past the modern city of Santiago, Chile in the south. The Inca road system covered approximately 22,500 km (14,000 mi) and provided access to over three million km² of territory.
Türkçe: İnka yolları İnka mimarisinin en önemli unsurlarından biridir. İnka yol sisteminin tüm uzunluğu 20.000 km'nin üzerindedir. Ancak İnkalar tekerleği icat etmedikleri için bu yollar tamamen yürüyüş amaçlı olarak yapılmış yollardı. Bu yol sistemi biri sahil boyunca diğeri ise And dağları içlerinde olmak üzere iki ana yoldan oluşmaktadır. Bu yollar, İnka yöneticilerinin imparatorluğun değişik bölgelerine yaptığı ziyaretlerde kullanılmakla birlikte hem yolların üzerindeki askeri amaçlı depolara eşya ve yiyecek gibi malzemeleri taşıyan lama kervanları tarafından hem de imparatorluğun değişik bölgelerindeki isyanları bastırmak ya da savaşlara katılmak için bir yerden bir yere intikal eden askerler tarafından kullanılmaktaydılar. Aynı zamanda posta amaçlı olarak iletişimi sağlayan ve İnka dilinde chasqui olarak adlandırılan koşucular (ulaklar) tarafından da kullanılmaktaydı. Sıradan insanların İnka yollarını kullanmaları için mutlaka resmi bir izin belgesine gereksinimleri vardı.
