Last year a documentary special aired concerning Inca Astronomical observance.
I was staggered by what was revealed..
On the mountain sides, tracking for dozens of miles...the terraces and rock outcroppings were manipulated to reveal a 3 dimensional map.."Of the Milky way"...they did in 3D..what the Egyptians could not do.
In certain places..sunlight touches certain rock outcroppings...litterly marking each months passage..each solstice...revealing the procession of the "Zodiac" on the mountain sides.
These manipulations are huge...hundreds of feet apart..evident from the ground..and from high elevations... they would climb..and watch the seasons unfold..knowing exactly when to plant..and when to obseve ritual festivals...but in this..and confirmed by the narrator..like the Spanish Friars account..they foresaw..and saw..the end of "Their time"...this is why the Spanish mastered them so quickly..they really believed their time on earth had come to an end...they saw it in the stars.
