Which archaeological site was discovered by a future Republican U.S. Senator? A. Peru's Machu Picchu, one of the most spectacular archaeological sites in the world, was discovered in 1911 by Hiram Bingham, who was later elected Governor (R-CT) and Senator.

FWIW - My grandfather was a friend of Hiram Bingham and was on the 1915 expedition as medical doctor and anthropologist.
