The ruins of Saqsaywaman and Qenqo in Peru showcase the great resourcefulness and skills of the Incas. Saqsaywaman, at over 12,000 feet above sea level, is a walled fortress overlooking the city of Cusco, the ancient Inca capital. It took 20,000-30,000 men 60 years to move and put the massive stones in place for military and religious purposes. The stones were place on top of each other without mortar and even a credit card can't fit between them. Qenqo is a religious site located near Cusco which was carved out of a giant stone monolith. Underneath the rock is an underground burial chamber where mummies used to be stored.
