  • The two flinty syllables strike at the imagination like the sudden hard beat of an Andean drum: Inca. Their cities of gold, sun worship, and virgin sacrifice. It is the stuff of legend. Legends that for the most part remain hidden in the impenetrable no man’s land of Peru’s high country. For the better part of 400 years, people have searched the deep canyons and towering ice peaks of these mist-covered cloud forests trying to locate the lost cities of the Inca. They were all after one thing; gold. Any gold would do but there was one thing desired above all others, the Great Golden Disc of the Sun. The most sacred of all Inca relics. The Inca Holy Grail. It is in search of this Holy Grail that David Adams goes on his journey to Puncuyoc, the sacred Sister City of Machu Picchu; the city sought but never found by Hiram Bingham.

    I hope the Lost City of Gold remains lost. It be sad when there is no more mystery left in the World.

      the legendary lost city, legend for a reason, to throw off anyone because spain actually took all the gold and left behind stories to say they did not.

    I bet they spent a fortune setting up all these shots, having to pay the locals to dress up, tote all their gear, stop set up shots, making sure food is at strategic places, the shower, logistics of setting up all those people, finding all the trails that make that big circle in the mountains just to make for more Interesting programming.

    I honestly don't believe that their care one bit about learning how those people once lived..all they want is to discover the fortune of the lost people or should I say a whole civilization that the colonisers killed out

    In this age of satellite imagery, I'd be very surprised if anything has gone undiscovered in the area, even under thick regrowth straight lines tend to stand out in a place like this.

    • @pandastonetree

      satellite imagery cannot see beneith growth and such. That requries Lidar, which is still a fairly new tech.

      @@pandastonetree It doesn't need to see beneath the growth, just where it is growing, if it is over a wall, there'll still be a straight line of growth, which isn't natural. The same way you can see long overgrown roads from the air that can't be made out at ground level.

      @@tareskisloki8579 Nature does indeed make straight lines, its been proven thousands of times. Also, Trees and foliage cover up walls and lines like that. So much so people cannot even tell when walking right next to it. Trees also tend to grow to the same height around each other in forests like that. So even from air, it wouldnt show up as easy as you think

      @@pandastonetree except they HAVE found lost cities via satellite. And they've already used LIDAR to find a lost Maya city. It's more a matter of time and effort than technology at this point.
