Buried+Treasure

=Treasures=

by Olesya
The Incas excelled in working with gold and silver. They made jewelry, pottery and all kinds of treasures. Scientists have found burial grounds with ancient treasures such as golden plates, silver cups, figures representing gods or their beloved llamas, clearly belonging to royalty. The Incas believed that gold was the sun’s sweat and silver the moon’s tears.
