Inapatikana
Maghala ya Huánuco Pampa
Miaka minne, siku nne za njia, na mavuno yasiyokwambia ukubwa wake hadi yaingie.
Huánuco, around 1500. Five hundred stone storehouses on a hillside above the road from Cusco to Quito, a valley that grows more than it can eat, and a puna three days above it where the nights are cold enough to make food that lasts. Relief is a loan, and it comes back in a good year.
Jinsi unavyochezwa
Ita mit’a
Kazi ilidaiwa kwa zamu, na dola iliwalisha waliokuwa wakiitekeleza. Nguvu kazi ni njaa kama ilivyo mikono.
Beba kabla hakijaharibika
Ziada iko bondeni, baridi kali iko punani siku tatu juu yake, na maghala yako katikati.
Amua kitakachosalia kuwa chakula
Ghala lililojaa viazi mwezi Machi si akiba.
Vitu halisi
Mchezo huu unahusu mahali halisi na watu halisi. Hivi ni vitu walivyotengeneza, vilivyopigwa picha na makumbusho yanayovihifadhi — si michoro yetu.
An Inca kero, the paired drinking beaker used to seal an agreement. Two were always used at once: hospitality was how the state made an obligation binding, and that is what the storehouses paid for.

An Inca tunic. Cloth was the empire’s most valuable manufactured good, stored in quantity and given as payment — one of the commodities the player moves.
