| The Oldest Postal System in Peru The 'Chasquis'; runners that delivered messages, were the postmen of the Incas, running on the 'Inca Highway' or 'Qhapaq Ñan', the sophisticated Pre-Columbian road system, reaching all corners of the Inca Empire. The image on the right was taken from a drawing made by Guaman Poma de Ayala, Peruvian chronicler of the XVI century. The Chasqui is the symbol of Peru Post. |
