Final answer:
Option C is the most fitting limitation, as the author's background and circumstances may have influenced his understanding and portrayal of the Inca society.
Step-by-step explanation:
The best choice that describes a limitation to the information presented in the passage is option B. The author did not have direct contact with the Inca, so the information presented may be incorrect.
The passage states that the primary source for Inca society and culture is the work of Inca Garcilaso de la Vega, who was the son of a Spanish conquistador and an Inca noblewoman. However, his account was written when he had retired to Spain, indicating that he did not have direct contact with the Inca at the time of writing.
Without direct contact, the author's information may be based on second-hand accounts, hearsay, or his own interpretations, making it susceptible to inaccuracies.
Option C is the most fitting limitation, as the author's background and circumstances may have influenced his understanding and portrayal of the Inca society.
Based on the information presented, option C best describes a limitation to the information about the Inca. The author was not a member of the society and may have misunderstood some of the workings of the government. Although Inca Garcilaso de la Vega had Inca heritage and provided a history from a native point of view, his conquistador background and the fact that his writings were done in retirement in Spain could have affected his perspectives and understanding. Similarly, Felipe Guaman Poma de Ayala, despite being an indigenous Inka historian, was Christianized by the Spanish, which might have influenced his views and narratives in his 1000-page letter to the King of Spain.
