Question

Which of the following was NOT unique about the Incas?

a) They had a massive system of roads
b) They worshiped a pantheon headed by a sun god
c) Their written language was a system of knots called quipu
d) They were the largest empire in the Americas

Answer 1

The Incas did not have a unique written language; their record-keeping system used quipus, which were colored strings with knots to convey information.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct answer to which of the following was NOT unique about the Incas is c) Their written language was a system of knots called quipu.

The Incas, like many other civilizations, developed a sophisticated record-keeping system featuring quipus, which involved a set of colored strings with knots that were used to convey information. However, this was not a written language.

Each of the other options: a) their massive system of roads, b) worship of a pantheon headed by a sun god, and d) being the largest empire in the Americas, were indeed distinctive traits of the Inca Empire.
