The following two quotes are accounts of indigenous leaders in the Americas. The first is about the Aztec emperor. The second is about the Incan ruler. Use these excerpts to answer the question that follows: "There were many...grandees around the monarch, some of whom held the canopy over his head, while others again occupied the road before him, and spread cotton cloths on the ground that his feet might not touch the bare earth. No one of his suite ever looked at him full in the face; everyone in his presence stood with eyes downcast." "The court was filled with Indian nobles, dressed in gaily ornamented attire, in attendance on the monarch.... His dress was simpler than that of his attendants. But he wore on his head the crimson borla or fringe, which, surrounding the forehead, hung down as low as the eyebrow. This was the well-known badge of Peruvian sovereignty [royalty]." Source: Public Domain Based on the two passages, how did the Inca emperor and the Aztec emperor compare?

Respuesta :

The main difference here is the Inca ruler is more ordinary.


From this passages, we can see that the Aztec emperor is revered more. He basically is a deity and he is treated as such. Due to his status, his servants spread cloth on the ground so that his divine presence did not touch  the ground the commoners walk on and they dare not even look at him. The Inca emperor on the other hand has only his headwear  that signalized his status, and his garments were more ordinary.
