Inca Buildings
   

The Incas used big stone blocks to build most buildings. The buildings were very strong and survived several earthquakes.

Important buildings like temples and palaces were made from evenly cut stone blocks. Most buildings were made from uneven stone blocks.

They also built very strong bridges from reeds and grasses.

The Incas did not use cement.

 

 


This is an Inca stone wall I made from clay.
The Incas had to cut each block down to an exact shape to fit in with the rest.
