Abstract
This dissertation studies the concept of scale in the worldview of the Inca civilization, and was precipitated by the countless "miniature" objects made throughout the Pre-Columbian Andean world. Often relegated to the background of scholarship, scaled objects are not well understood and have exerted little influence on the academic understandings of the Incas.
