Baktar, A Tale From the Andes-- LINKS 

There are a gazillion links to wonderful sites on the Incas, both past and present day, and it's hard to narrow it down to just these few. These are some of my own favorites but consider them as just a taste of what's out there.

You can hear Quechua spoken and sung on this site! Click on <Pronunciation> to listen to native speakers say certain words, or go to <Songs in Quechua> to hear native singing. This site offers a large variety of cultural information from the basics of the language (learn to count to ten in Quechua), crafts, music, jokes, and much more, all from the descendants of the ancient Incas.
