	Inca rope bridge - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		They were frequently used by Chasqui runners delivering messages throughout the Inca Empire.
		The construction of these bridges amounted to a pair of stone anchors on each side of the canyon with massive cables of woven ichu grass linking these two pylons together.
		Overall, these bridges allowed Inca chasqui runners to take more direct routes through the region's mountains and this helped to complete the Inca highway system.

		The idea behind the "new" Chasqui is simply to improve it by making it a "super Scout", rather than a "really bad Jaguar Warrior".
		The reason to make Scouts upgrade to Chasqui Scouts is to ensure that the Incans start with this new UU right from the start, providing them with some truly awesome exploration capabilities.
		Therefore it's a test to see whether the modified Chasqui is a good unit in the human player's hands, whatever his or her skill level.

	Chasqui Research Group
		In the Chasqui project we investigate novel approaches to program optimization for modern computer architectures that are based on a combination of traditional static program analysis and dynamic information obtained via run-time profiling.
		In the Chasqui project, we attempt to push this idea to another level by exploring program properties beyond value-invariance that can be exploited for optimization.
		Since memory-hierarchy based optimizations (e.g., redundant load removal) are going to be increasingly important based on the widening gap between processor and memory performance, one of our curren projects focuses on optimizations based on non-aliasing.

		If only one of their hundreds of bridges was damaged, a major road could not fully function; every time one broke, the locals would repair it as quickly as possible.
		One chasqui runner would start from the chasqui post in Nazca and run about a kilometer to another chasqui, waiting outside another hut.
		The message would be relayed and the chain would be continued for hundreds of miles by hundreds of runners until the last runner reached the Sapa Inca and told the message, exact to the original word, because a severe punishment awaited a wrong message, which they knew since their training began in boyhood
