因蒂 (Inti) is the Inca god of the sun, revered in ancient Inca civilization. He was considered the ancestor of the Inca people and played a crucial role in their agricultural practices, as sunlight was essential for crop growth. Festivals and rituals were held in his honor, particularly during the winter solstice. 因蒂 was often depicted as a golden figure, symbolizing warmth and life. The Inca built temples, such as the famous Coricancha in Cusco, dedicated to him. His significance extended beyond religion, influencing Inca culture, art, and governance, as leaders claimed descent from him to legitimize their rule.
