This special symposium celebrates the opening of the National Museum of the American Indian’s landmark exhibition, The Great Inka Road: Engineering an Empire, with a fascinating look at the material, political, economic, and religious structures that integrated more than one hundred Native nations and millions of people in the powerful Andean Empire known as the Tawantinsuyu. In this segment, Walter Alvarez, Instituto Boliviano de Medicina Tradicional Kallawaya, gives some remarks on the traditional medical practices of the Kallawaya.

The symposium was recorded at the Rasmuson Theater of the National Museum of the American Indian on June 25-26, 2015.
