The Incans were amazing stone cutters. Macchu picchu is a bucket-list trip indeed. The Conquistadors and the Spanish administers that followed wiped out the entire Incan Civilization. No written history = gone forever. Bummer.
The megalithic walls built there have that perfect fit because the workers slid them back and forth against each other. Since the stones were basically of the same hardness, the wore each other smooth, leaving that “no knife blade between them” look. Pretty smart.
Is it really possible for a handful of Europeans to wipe out a culture? I doubt it. The people themselves were offered a better, more rational, and more humane worldview and embraced it willingly.
I really enjoy the tv shows about ancient cultures. A few are going overboard with the ETs helping them though. I do not know what to think about that especially the one the other night about finding an ancient computer and electricity in the pyramids. I need proof.
