The Andes Indian are an indigenous people of South America, primarily inhabiting the Andes mountain range. They are known for their unique culture and traditions, including the INCA Empire, which was the largest empire in pre-Columbian America. The INCA were known for their advanced architecture, engineering, and agricultural practices. The Andes Indians also domesticated the LLAMA, a large mammal native to the Andes, as well as the OCA, a root vegetable. Llamas were used as pack animals and for their wool, while OCA was a staple food crop. The Alta people, another Andean group, were known for their weaving and pottery.
