For those who are interested in the topic of polygonal masonry. A number of methods for obtaining the polygonal masonry are proposed. The basis of the proposed methods is the use of clay/gypsum replicas, a topography translator, and reduced clay models of the stone blocks along with a 3D-pantograph. The results are presented in the article: “Fabrication methods of the polygonal masonry of large tightly-fitted stone blocks with curved surface interfaces in megalithic structures of Peru”.

Thanks for that hint, I've never seen that paper before. It is fairly erudite and well researched, but I boggled at his (well, your) seeming assertion that the Inka masons used hardened steel sledgehammers, chisels, and crowbars. The Inkas used no steel at all; all their stone work was done with rounded river rocks of various sizes, called by Protzen as well as Gasparini and Margolies, "hammer stones." All told, it is almost as scholarly as Bonnaterre's "Rumimuqu: A Speculative Investigation into Archaeological Theory and Exegesis of a Persistent Autochthonous Topological Anomaly in Late Horizon Ashlar, Wanka, Cyclopean, Cellular, Coursed, Cushioned, Convex, Pitted, and Polygonal Masonry Construction in Ollantaytambo and the Lower Yucay Valley: The Stone Gnomons - What Are Those Bumps For?"

I was in Ollantaytambo.. It´s a small Machu Picchu. It´s increible that no tourist there. When I went there, there were lots of people. The first two times there. I went by tour.. and I had just a few minutes to walk. The last time, I went without tour and I walked three hours and I was so happy. Saludos and Practiquen su español..
I was thinking you both sound tired. The three day hike was an asskicker! Heck yeah, take a break. Rest, relax, revive and come back strong. We grounded travelers need you guys!
Another interesting video. My children like to watch them too. And you two deserved some time off, good decision. A couple of observations, the European invasion of the Inca Empire happen in 1532, the specific site that you showed, is much older than the Inca Empire. It was not interrupted by the European invasion. However, other parts of Ollantaytambo, were affected, so it depends on the specific location. The large stones, boulders, and so on, are older than the Incas. It is very easy to recognized in the constructions, which are Inca, and which are pre-Inca. Usually the megalithic, boulders that fit so well without mortar, are before, and the smaller ones, or repair parts, are Incas. Another observation, is that the Inca Empire was made up of many different ethnic groups, with many languages. The word Inca refers only to the emperor, not the rest of the people. The Europeans though that the native people were religious, since the Spaniards were, but that is a stereotype. You guys should read some literature on the stereotypes of Peru, a good book is by Jack Weatherford, called Indian Givers. Many people talk about the native people of Peru, based on their bias, and not in a factual way. People mix, or confused the Aztecs, and Mayas, with the Incas, which were different civilizations. Best wishes.
Sorry if I am not the best historian but The Inca construction was really fine, an example is the Coricancha temple ( in Cusco city, under a Spanish construction), where stones fit perfectly beautifully, that probably is not open because of the situation. The Inca culture was characterised by assimilating other cultures, they didn’t end anything they acquired more culture, but probably some Incas were better than others like Pachacutec the constructor of Machu Picchu. And there were 14 Incas since Manco Capac until Atahualpa, and you are right the Inca was the emperor and maybe we can say the runa simis were common people from the south of the Tahuantinsuyo Empire like Cusco. The Tahuantinsuyo was from Chile and Argentina to Colombia, the Capital was Cusco where our friends are right now. Then the Spanish arrived and they founded the Virreynato of Peru from Chile and Argentina until Colombia.
You are wrong. Incas also built with larger stones. Check what they built the time of Inca Huayna Capac in the current territory of Quito Ecuador an Inca temple or an astronomical observatory called Ingapirca th-cam.com/video/_1JbRN0qWOY/w-d-xo.html
Cute and strong little girl said something like "do not take pictures during lunch time (you cannot take pictures before you eat your meal)"... I love her! and Lindsay did a great impression too. It was my favorite part
That "Mexican" meal was incredible, the said is, peruvians anything they touch, they'll be doing it much better, and the proof was at your table, awesome lunch, and chicha, WOW!!...
The place where you are staying looks nice and relaxing. You guys have been working hard and deserve a break! Why not take at least a whole week off (or more as needed) and not worry about posting anything. Everyone would completely understand and be supportive!
Alex and Lindsey, you both are fully acclimatized and getting a good piece of healthy air and organic food. It will be absorved by your bodies and will stay will you both, even after you leave Cusco and Peru 🇵🇪
Ollantaytambo is one of my favorite places. I'm so glad that you are having this time there. It's such a beautiful place, rich in culture and so full of history!
Thank you for another amazing video. Through all these months of lockdown you have been the best ambassadors of my beautiful country to the world. I just keep on referring and sharing your videos since you deserve much more views and subscribers. All the best!
I thought that you were going to be gone completely for a few weeks.. lol phew....we'll still see you almost as often :D Enjoy your weekend breaks. Every video is enriching, I never imagined learning about Peru of the Incas through your videos. I also love when you go strolling on the little towns looking for restaurants or chicherias.
So glad you guys are enjoying Ollantaytambo. The city is just beautiful. If you are able to, can you please ask your friend or perhaps a local what the round structure is next to the soccer stadium at 2:19. We stayed at a place very close to there and saw it in our photos but have no idea what it’s for. It looks like a tiny bull ring in way but we are wondering if it is for sport, sacrifice or something totally different. Thank you again for your videos and enjoy your refresher.
Lindsey Fw Ah okay. Thank you. It just looked so small that we thought it might be for something else. Glad y’all are getting to all these places. Even the places I have been to before, I’m learning new things to seek out and places to visit the next time.
You guys really need a little break. Have a well deserved break. Thanks for all your postings. Very much appreciated. Keep them coming. They're really awesome. Cheers!
Guys, as an spanish speaker I think she said before you eat please take a picture of the meal or something like that. I think she was trying to promote her family business. Haha
Thats right ! Savor the mystique ambiance of Peru by yourself , enjoy it to the max , without feeling the pressure of the need to make videos for viewers outright. Although We always wait for it. Thats how I do.
Thank you so much for your wonderful videos. Ollantaytambo is a favorite of mine. I spent three days there with my daughter ninteen years ago. We hiked a lot in the ruins, got lost on a trail to another ruin and enjoyed ourselves immensely. I've been to Peru twice and am looking forward to going again when this covid crisis is over. Oh yes, the food is sooo good!
Well, guys that was a good treat for three bucks burritos INCA style OLLANTAYTAMBO is one those little town with a bohemian style and lot and lots of arqueological sites enjoy😀👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Hello guys, another great video!. I think you've found the secret of the Incas, it's all about the "worship and appreciation of nature: the view. Incas like many cultures understand nature as Gods. Thus, all the architecture built in response to them. Keep enjoying Peru , it's people, places and mystery. Cheers.
Hi guys! Great video, as always. I've been a couple of times to Ollanta, but you guys saw more places. Beautiful. Sad news: Cusco's mayor Valderrama just passed away from Covid-19 😥. Please, please, please be careful. We'll be always here waiting for your posts, but you need to take care of yourselves, and rest as much as needed. Love from NorCal. 🥰
Well, I feel exhausted after that phew, there was so much going on thanks for the variety. Yes, take a break now your out and about you must be filming more editing more. Twice a week of a slightly longer length would be fine. Wishing you both well. PS Hows Mr Potatoehead?
1) the "tired stones" are called sayk’usqa rumi, "rumi" being stone. 2) What you call the "back" of the "Inkawatana" is the front, facing the the rising sun at the December solstice. 3) The trapezoidal niches you see in most Inka buildings would hold idols if they were temples, personal items if they were residences. The Inka had no furniture. 3) The two-story structure in Qellu Racay was, per archeologists and Andeanists, probably Inka Pachacutiq's lodging in his river retreat. As you say, all is speculation.4) The "glacier" is called Wayka Willkiy in the Inka tongue, and Apu Veronica in Spanish. I guess they named it after the restaurant. Glad you like the town, it has the most undestroyed Inka ruins in the world. I moved here ten years ago and I'm never going back.
Wow, thank you again for a great video. I am learning more about my native Peru and it's culture by watching your videos. Since you guys go through the unexplored areas and off the tourist traps I get to see the real people and fall in love even more with my country. I pray that we get to visit Peru soon, to step again on the Pachamama and thank the ancestors for their legacy. Thanks for all you show us, enjoy your little 'breaks' and stay safe.
The Travelbum = Discovery Channel 🌎✍🏻 Thank you Alex & Lindsey for this valuable video from Cusco-Peru WELL DONE!! You guys deserve to take a break, enjoy it and see you in the next video, Chau🙂👋🏼
Beautiful video, beautiful country! Really enjoyed seeing so much of Perú! The bloopers at this video were so funny! Well deserved "break"! Take care and stay safe! PS: when will you guys release more Colombia videos? :)
@Simona Ciorei Hello, I am also looking forward to those videos but in the meantime I recommend you LeAw , Leave Everything and Wander. The Peruvian episodes generates strong emotions.
Guys, I’m always amaze by the places you’re discovering! Totally unknown to me and I travel every year for Christmas to my family in Cusco 😂😂. Enjoy these beautiful places and thank you for allowing us to travel with you!!
Aww.... Not only the views were so awesome, the little girl in Apu Veronica was so cute and adorable!😅💖 Alex n Lindsey, thank you so much for sharing all what you've visited so far in Cusco and all. You definitely deserve to have a good break! Rest up from filming and editing videos. See you all again in the next video and more! Stay safe🙏
Great video! That place is totally cool, love it and the ruins are fantastic. Can't imagine what it felt like to be there. Lol, that sassy little girl. 😂💓 Love you guys. Be safe and enjoy your time off. God bless. 💕😷👫🙏
Great video guys😊 you've seen and done so much in these sad times and still making it fun for us😆 That meal looked so so pretty because of all the gorgeous colours and yes incredibly priced to think of all the ingredients bowls n hard work they put into it for you! I've said it before and will say it again......take a break, we won't be upset with you both.....you deserve a nice long week at least of putting the camera away and just switching off! Only thing I ask is an up date on Mr Potatoe head (Spud) but will keep my eyes peeled for next video of what you've been up to😊 Stay safe! Sending hugs Rose😘😘🐕🐶 xx
Hello Alex and Lindsey! Glad to see that you guys are still busy and about...sharing these super interesting videos! That was pretty funny when that little girl came up and was giving her little "commands" or whatever...gosh- I was wondering for a min. there if she was speaking quechua -as I understood most of what she said but, not all. Take care guys and stay safe. That's great that you guys are taking a little break from all the taping etc. You guys are the best! You deserve a little break there. 🎖 😀
I’ve done editing for my teenieTiny Channel. I can’t imagine the work you have done uploading every two day BUT I have enjoyed them all. All the construction you have seen with small stones is Inca work. Those massive smooth stones were done by a lost technology thousand of years earlier by an unknown civilisation. Notice the differences as you travel. When I grow up, I want to be like Alex and so cool 😎. 😉
Haha he is pretty cool 😎 😊❤️ he does a bulk of the work with this channel and I’m amazed how he has kept up with every other day videos. It hasn’t been easy.
What I love of your videos is that they have so much fun things. I know that there is a lot of whitewater rafting in the Apurimac River which is not far. Would you be doing that?
👍 👍 Alex, One of the reasons why the Inca Arquitecture was built by the Incas an not another lost-in-time civilizations is "Piedras Cansadas" They were on its way to a new Temple , but the construction was suddenly stopped. The reason for being suddenly stopped was the abrupt presence of Spain 🇪🇸 in Peru 🇵🇪 I mentioned this because there are some few youtubers on internet with no professsional background that says that it was built by another civilization thousands of years ago, and even Aliens
I'm a Peruvian, but I 'm a person who likes to use common sense, Its already well know than the Inca Empire was just 200 hundred years - and impossible to build all the constructions in that short time. But Pre- Inca civilizations were in Our land Peru also, whoever they were, and I m proud of what they did.
Jose, just look carefully at the details of the Piedra Cansada. *It is not been there during thousands of years* Just some few hundreds of years. The shinny and fresh color of the rock shows no deterioration by the nature. This means it was done by Incas and was part of the beginning of a proyect . Peru had 16 millions of population when Spain came here. It is enough people to do the job as MachuPicchu in less than 100 years
It is mathematically impossible for an entire empire with megalithic constructions to be built in just 200 years, neither did the Incas know the wheels or large metal machines and it is easy to see in the Inca constructions, how they built walls of mud and stones without the perfect technique From the foundations of the same walls, there are historians who say that the Incas said that they already found the demolished buildings and they built on top of it. Read the real comments of the Inca Garcilazo de la Vega where he says that the Incas told him that their ancestors said that those who built those buildings came down from heaven. and also the founders of the Inca empire Manco Capac and Mama Ocllo came out of the waters of Lake Titicaca. I mean that everything is mystical in The history of the land of the Incas.
Could you send the link of book where we can read that what you are saying is true about Inca Garcilazo ? Where is the link to the words of Inca Garcilazo saying it was built by Gods from Heaven also known as Aliens ? Please do not put a link of a youtuber or any other non serious arqueology. We just want the original book or original information from a serious link. Thanks
HELLO GUYS !! GREAT GREAT GREAT AMAZING VIDEO !!! i've never seeing that wall with the holes on it . you two need some kind of GOLD MEDAL for showing this much about Peru. whats your location so i can move with you ya'll hehehe BIG APPLAUSE 👏👏👏👏👏 FOR YOU !! That lunch was very cheap and very tasty yummy nummy good 🌯🌯🌯. GOOD LUCK AND BE CAREFUL 🇵🇪🇺🇸
Love your videos guys. It's good to have a break, video editing takes long so it's understandable. Have a great time. If you ever come to Uruguay please do let me know, I'm happy to guide you.
Hey guys, watch until the end for a semi-important update 😌
Ollanta! Spoken like a true native. I love you, Alex.
You, too,Lindsey! Your eye makeup was extra special today.
Thank you guys for all the work!!
I'll miss your videos guys but it's good to take a break to recharge batteries. Enjoy your break,

After seeing your meal at Apu Veronica, I'm guessing I'm not the only one who is suddenly hungry!
It was incredible!
Ollantaytambo is the most mistic beautifull town in the world, with many ruins around such a mistery city

It makes it extra special when there’s no one else around

Hello Alex and Lindsey! Glad to see that you guys are still busy and about...sharing these super interesting videos! That was pretty funny when that little girl came up and was giving her little "commands" or whatever...gosh- I was wondering for a min. there if she was speaking quechua -as I understood most of what she said but, not all. Take care guys and stay safe. That's great that you guys are taking a little break from all the taping etc. You guys are the best! You deserve a little break there. 🎖 😀

Thank you, you are so kind for saying that 😊
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 gracias
Alex and Lindsay enjoy this nice peruvian place! Regards
Excelente video, buenas aventuras.
I’ve done editing for my teenieTiny Channel. I can’t imagine the work you have done uploading every two day BUT I have enjoyed them all.
All the construction you have seen with small stones is Inca work. Those massive smooth stones were done by a lost technology thousand of years earlier by an unknown civilisation. Notice the differences as you travel.
When I grow up, I want to be like Alex and so cool 😎.
😉
Haha he is pretty cool 😎 😊❤️ he does a bulk of the work with this channel and I’m amazed how he has kept up with every other day videos. It hasn’t been easy.
What I love of your videos is that they have so much fun things. I know that there is a lot of whitewater rafting in the Apurimac River which is not far. Would you be doing that?
Hi guys, great video, good idea to take a little break between videos, you deserve it.
Great channel 👍
Love your work. Would love it if in post production you flipped in the occasional map. :)
Good idea!
Wow. Those tortillas from La Veronica loos amazing. We must try it sometime. Thinking of y'all.
They were amazing! Hope you can make it here.
Amazing places in Peru !!!,
Enjoy your time ! You deserve it guys!
Enjoy your days out ustedes se lo merecen.we going to miss you
Ollantay!!
Omg they are persian sweet lemons! They are so good, we have those in Cali too but they are expensive!
The fruit in Peru is the best ever and it’s cheap
Thank you!
You are true explorers but one of the friendliest! Many greetings...❤
👍 👍 Alex, One of the reasons why the Inca Arquitecture was built by the Incas an not another lost-in-time civilizations is "Piedras Cansadas" They were on its way to a new Temple , but the construction was suddenly stopped. The reason for being suddenly stopped was the abrupt presence of Spain 🇪🇸 in Peru 🇵🇪 I mentioned this because there are some few youtubers on internet with no professsional background that says that it was built by another civilization thousands of years ago, and even Aliens
I'm a Peruvian, but I 'm a person who likes to use common sense, Its already well know than the Inca Empire was just 200 hundred years - and impossible to build all the constructions in that short time. But Pre- Inca civilizations were in Our land Peru also, whoever they were, and I m proud of what they did.
Jose, just look carefully at the details of the Piedra Cansada. *It is not been there during thousands of years* Just some few hundreds of years. The shinny and fresh color of the rock shows no deterioration by the nature. This means it was done by Incas and was part of the beginning of a proyect . Peru had 16 millions of population when Spain came here. It is enough people to do the job as MachuPicchu in less than 100 years
It is mathematically impossible for an entire empire with megalithic constructions to be built in just 200 years, neither did the Incas know the wheels or large metal machines and it is easy to see in the Inca constructions, how they built walls of mud and stones without the perfect technique From the foundations of the same walls, there are historians who say that the Incas said that they already found the demolished buildings and they built on top of it. Read the real comments of the Inca Garcilazo de la Vega where he says that the Incas told him that their ancestors said that those who built those buildings came down from heaven. and also the founders of the Inca empire Manco Capac and Mama Ocllo came out of the waters of Lake Titicaca. I mean that everything is mystical in The history of the land of the Incas.
Could you send the link of book where we can read that what you are saying is true about Inca Garcilazo ? Where is the link to the words of Inca Garcilazo saying it was built by Gods from Heaven also known as Aliens ? Please do not put a link of a youtuber or any other non serious arqueology. We just want the original book or original information from a serious link. Thanks
