In the 16th century, the Inca Empire faced Spanish conquistadors and fled deep into the jungles of Peru, where they built a last stronghold called Vilcabamba. American explorer Hiram Bingham, driven by a desire for fame, sought to uncover the lost city of Vilcabamba. Bingham's expedition, funded by various corporations and his wife's wealth, led him to Machu Picchu, a remarkable Inca site he initially believed to be Vilcabamba. Bingham's legacy endures as he played a pivotal role in uncovering one of the world's great wonders.

I visited Macchu Picu. Amazing site knowing it was built without iton or horse in a remote place in the mountains. The stones were carved with precision with no gaps or mortar. Incredible feat by the Inca.

I've come to realize,: ☀️🏹 The ruins Bingham found are pre-Incan, pre-flood, a Civilization that came before us, one that has reu8ns encircling this Earth, and for anyone to deny it can only be due to "lack of familiarity with History through Education", and/or "Mainstream Academic 19th Century Theory based Paradigm and Linear Timeline" programming, occasionally refered to as: the "Mainstream Academia Dogmatic Orthodoxy". 🔑 ... for a Learned, Open Mind applying the "Standards of Science and Research" can see the facts easily and with logic, realize that these are earlier People's Civilizations.

@cibetka76 Месяц назад

It seems quite obvious that Machu Picchu is not Vilcabamba. The chronicle is clear that the Incas took refuge to jungle plains, and its completely logical. They already saw Mountains arent protected enough as Spaniards took all their cities and forts there. They went to more inaccessible place, and eventhough its not their normal habitat, they had no choice. Also, the lack of ruins the kind of Machu Picchu there is normal, there isnt enough stone in muddy plain as there is in mountain, the Incas were remnants and refugees, not the grat empire any more, so its obvious that most of what they would have built there would be made of wood and perish.

@loveandlive05 13 дней назад

That is exactly what I thought. Plus, if you have the Spanish at your heels. They wouldn't have time to make Lavish buildings and extraravagant architecture. The buildings there would have been infererior and essential.

I can't help but think of the Monty Python skit with the sentence "sitting there on your loathsome spotted behinds" when I read derogatory comments by those who have, quite likely, never achieved anything of consequence in their lives. It's rich that they even express an opinion about an explorer such as Bingham. He was wealthy and educated so he could have lived a life of comfort instead of venturing out as he did !

@eduardoguillermo3156 Месяц назад

To be fair, a peasant would never have the resources to bring Machu Picchu to the world like an incredibly wealthy explorer would, so of course the explorer would get the credit.

Agustín Lizárraga Ruiz (Spanish: [aɣusˈtin liˈθaraɣa] June 12, 1865, in Mollepata - February 11, 1912, in Urubamba River) was a Peruvian explorer and farmer who discovered Machu Picchu on July 14, 1902, nine years prior to American explorer Hiram Bingham.

They’ve put many hours into this. If you can do better, please share 😅😖 Oh and @iamllux why do you think British narrators and documentary makers are considered THE BEST in the world? Because they are. I really wonder the foundation of your ridiculous comment, like I said “if you don’t like what you see, click away!”

I always wonder how this Europeans who came to the shores in ships with limited soldiers and supplies can conquer a well established country on the main land, they had Guns, but can they defeat a well established country with few cannons, Guns and soldiers, their commanders must be very cunning, ruthless who bribed the locals to help them conquer and colonised the countries.

@brendacooper5729 2 дня назад

Incas fleeing into the jungle would likely not have the resources, and possibly not the expertise to duplicate the stonework of the previous Inca cities, not to mention the time between the founding and the discovery by the Spaniards. It was rather unrealistic to dismiss it because it didn't duplicate previous examples.

@nickim6571 Месяц назад

I don't understand how you can claim to "discover" a place that many other people know about--American and European hubris.

"American and European hubris" That's brilliant. You need to bring this to the attention of National Geographic, they've obviously not thought about this ☝️😅🤣😂

@Skarlett00 2 дня назад

Locals knew this place existed obviously but it had never been documented/studied by the western world so for the western world it was a discovery. If the Incans had travelled to Europe they too would have gone back home to speak of a new land and people that was discovered.

This is a documentary about Hyram Bingham the 3rd's "great discovery" that was already known by the local people. Good thing those rich white men were around to write history for us. BTW, "impoverished academic" is an oxymoron. But I don't expect narrators with British accents to know that.

The opening statement sounds ridiculous. If the Spaniards beat the Incas in this last city the Incas built to fight the Spaniards, the victors would not forget this unforgettable city in the clouds. If you;re going to write hypeervole as history, please keep track of the logic used.

@sinchikuyaqkanchik4846 2 месяца назад

Why do you think that the Inkas were an Empire,? Because of the conquistadors? Or because of the current spaniards? Such a concept exist only en western (european) and/or in the Midle Eastern culture. The Inka society were never an Empire (Do you know its implications of an Empire?) , we don't have such a concept in our culture. You can find out through our voices; meaning, through our languages. Even here in North America'', natives don't have that term and many, many other terms or concepts in their languages. Etc., etc.,!
