Cuzco people crossword clue
52 Down · WSJ Crossword, July 22, 2026 · 4 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Cuzco people” is INCA. It appears as 52 Down in the Wall Street Journal crossword of July 22, 2026, a Wednesday puzzle titled “Sitting Around” by Mike Shenk, and it fills 4 squares running top to bottom from row 12, column 3 of the 15×15 grid.
The clue is a straightforward definition, so the answer is a direct synonym or a factual match for the words as written. The entry begins with I and ends with A, and contains 2 vowels and 2 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Across entries should be enough to lock it in. Wednesday puzzles sit mid-week on the difficulty curve, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
