Resumen
QUIJANO VODNIZA, Armando José. The Pleiades and the Agrarian and Ritual Calendar of the Incas. Rev. colomb. antropol. [online]. 2023, vol.59, n.2, pp.118-142. Epub 01-Mayo-2023. ISSN 0486-6525. https://doi.org/10.22380/2539472x.2436.
A state of the art is elaborated on the relationship of the Pleiades with the agrarian and ritual calendar of the Incas. For this, a literature review was carried out, consulting 86 scientific documents stored in different databases. As a result, it was found that there are two positions regarding the Inca calendar: the first approach corresponds to a sidereal lunar calendar based on the Pleiades, which was developed in depth by Tom Zuidema through his thesis on the ceque-quipu system; and the second approach would be a luni-solar calendar, which was possibly synchronized through sidereal observations, especially using the Pleiades.
