Inca Mythology - Important Places

Important Places

Inca cosmology was ordered in three spatio-temporal levels or Pachas. These included:

  • Uku Pacha ("the lower world") was located within the earth's surface.
  • Kay Pacha was the world in which we live.
  • Hanan Pacha ("higher world") was the world above us where the sun and moon lived.

Famous quotes related to important places:

    Coming out, all the way out, is offered more and more as the political solution to our oppression. The argument goes that, if people could see just how many of us there are, some in very important places, the negative stereotype would vanish overnight. ...It is far more realistic to suppose that, if the tenth of the population that is gay became visible tomorrow, the panic of the majority of people would inspire repressive legislation of a sort that would shock even the pessimists among us.
    Jane Rule (b. 1931)
