The unique iconography of the Inca tells of when to sow, when to harvest and when to shear the alpaca and llama. Known as tocapu, this pictorial alphabet comes from the Sacred Valley of the Inca Empire, which goes from Pisaq and Ollantaytambo, parallel to Vilcanota or Wilcamayu River, in Cuzco. Rolando and Luis paint this inspired ceramic vase by hand.
