45:37 when you point the camera down, water is still flowing through the stones. Thousands of years old, and the plumbing is still functional. Amazing

[@theodoresmith5272]

Most of the water works were around long before the inca. The wari people did a lot of it. The people by lake titicaca had moved big stones for centuries before too. The earliest civilizations in the Americas, the caral, built pyramids about the same time as the Egyptians and the found a 5000 year old irrigation ditch and one that might be 6700 years old. The site is about 60 miles from lima. I spent 2 months in Peru and 5 in South America. The list of pre inca civilizations in Peru is amazing. Look up paracas, mochi, Chan Chan, wari, and chachacoya just to name a few. Inca didnt start til 1250ad. I went to tombs outside cajamarca that were from 1000 B.C.. The amazing thing is several tribes were living plus 10,000 feet.

Stated or not, it's very well implied and is far more factual based on evidence than assuming.

Human Reproductive Bottleneck, yes my word. The graph is absolutely compelling if correct. All of our history starts at the beginning of the huge peak on the right hand side. But look at all that human growth from 50 thousand to 8 thousand years ago. Wow

[@robertomagnani8091]

Archaeological researchers often refuse to accept the occurrence of Younger Dryas impact and plain people had "forgotten" the oral traditions from ancestors, but the past can not be erased, it always remains some clue or hint here and there. One aspect that is often rejected is that many people have memories from the disaster, memories that emerge usually in dreams, recurrent dreams. Other times the rememberings come back in regressions. Whether a person remembers or not, the trauma inside can not be dismissed, and remains all the time in the subconscious, guiding us even when we "don't remember". The study of the archaic past will be improved when science begin to accept the importance of the memories that all of us have inside.

[@jmbreece]

Look for the book titled "traced , human DNAs big surprise" by Dr. Nathaniel Jeanson. He uses Y chromosome comparisons to trace the trees of people groups comparing that with the development of languages and migration patterns, which all line up remarkably well.

I spent 14 months in Peru. Visiting many of the megalithic sites as well as the Nazca lines and other "lines" that are in Peru that I have never seen mentioned. My overwhelming feeling is that there was a much more advanced population who created the megalithic sites. I also have the distinct impression that most of the ruins were in place when the Younger Dryas happened. I recently read that there are craters in South America that can be attributed to the Younger Dryas. It was with great sadness that I left Peru. wonderful people, magical place.

[@jackflash6377]

@@TruthWiz The other "lines" that I saw that no one talks about. I was in the city of Piura and had met a Briton who was living there with his Colombian wife. We were going to the beach and he was taking a "short cut" that was basically a dirt track. As we were riding along I noticed we drove over something that I immediately identified as a "line". It was typical.. small stones on either side creating a border, center was about 8 to 10 meters wide and devoid of stones and vegetation, also, it was arrow straight as far as I could see in either direction. The area was far from any town, civilization or even houses as that is a very thinly populated area of Peru. My host took me to several others like the one we first saw. He said they are scattered around and he never paid attention to them until I came along. I left Peru with one small piece of pottery. Is it real Inca? At the time I was told that the test was to scratch the bottom with a brass key. If the brass came off, it was real, if it scratched the glaze, it was fake. I've tried that test many times and the brass always gets left on the glaze and when you wipe the brass off, there is no sign of the scrape.

[@johncurtis920]

It is becoming increasingly apparent that our globe-spanning civilization is but the latest chapter in a story going back far longer than we know. Would that we could read it from the beginning, eh? But I suppose that will never be possible. That story seems to have been written on an Etch-a-Scetch tablet. One that some past event shook to such an extent that almost all the story is gone. Only the megalithic bare bones remain. Even so whatever it was we humans built, it must have been utterly amazing in its fashion. To be able to work such wonders in gigantic stone (for instance), betray a civilization with a depth of knowledge that not only rivals all we know today, but also was knowledgeable in a fashion about things which we can't even dream because our ways blind us to other potentialities. Ours is a different kind of civilization. Nestled as we are within it we cannot see the way in which the past informed and shaped itself. But they were human. So we can learn from what we see; recognize its humanity and in so doing perhaps better inform our own future. We need to do this. It is a worthy task. Why? Because something happened to bring them all down. And if it has happened before, it can happen again. And the next time we may not be so lucky. So let's take what we know, try as best we can to understand what we've lost, and move outward in the Universe. Let's try to arrange to live and love, create, destroy and build as humans are wont to do for a span of time at least as long as the dinosaurs. Let's avoid another "reset." We do that, and then we can truly call ourselves great. John~ American Net'Zen

[@johncurtis920]

@Sparky Runner Well there's one additional thought I'd toss out for consideration about all of this. As powerful a civilization as we have built today, and it IS powerful to the point of having tossed our toys outward to beyond the orbit of Pluto, there is one aspect to our nature that is completely different from the ways seemingly expressed by those who came before us. Our civilization is one with the philosophy of constant renewal. We are in a constant state of change, in flux, building, tearing down and rebuilding again, and again, and again. It's ephemeral in that sense. We call this progress. But from that which we can see of what remains, the multiple hundred ton blocks. some intricately and precisely carved, and all the rest, it seems theirs was a civilization built on the idea of "Build it once, and build it to Last. Hopefully forever." It may not have been forever, but boy they gave it a good try didn't they? Even today we remain in awe of what was done. John~ American Net'Zen

[@theodoresmith5272]

Hard to know what happened in the upper northern hemisphere after the ice sheets destroyed any evidence 10,000 years ago.

[@johncurtis920]

@@theodoresmith5272: HA! Indeed. But one thing seems clear...at least from the bare bones of that which remains. Whoever they were, they were driven by a cultural ideology vastly different from ours. We today have created a magnificent civilization. One capable of throwing robotic craft out of the solar system, analyzing the sun up close, wander the surface of Mars, create many vast wonders here on planet Earth. Feeding, however improperly, our multitudinous Billions. Not only can we feed our numbers on this wee rock circling its fusion bonfire, we are capable of destroying all life on it. We can even see, and contemplate, all the way to the very edge of the observable Universe. We have far more power than the gods of our myths. But ours is a constant, churning, roiling mass of a civilization, and all of it we vaguely define as "Progress." We create, enhance, change, tear down and recreate, over and over and over again. Whoever they were they may have had similar aspects as us in this, but one thing seems clear. Foundationally speaking they must have been driven by a different guiding principle. One which, for lack of a better way of describing it, I define as "Build it ONCE, and make if last FOREVER." Well...maybe forever is a bit ambitious, though that sentiment is wholly ego driven hubris and decidedly human in its nature, but they sure gave it a good shot didn't they? We marvel at the remains even today. John~ American Net'Zen

[@passerby9123]

In watching this video and from my own observations 25 years ago, the question arises who discovered,or even rediscovered what. To be clear, we are talking about the western world finding or being led to something that the locals already knew of, and so discovery in this sense is a narrow window of interest from the western worldthat has grown into a massive tourist trap today. 25 years ago, the Inca trail was affectionately known as the toilet paper trail, and as the local water sources became more and more poluted by interested westerners who stopped at trail camps overnight to eat meals washed in the local waters, so more and more toilet paper became dotted elsewhere all around the mountainsides. To be honest, I loved the place even in the rather shitty conditions described by the trail leading to it, but to talk of discovery is perhaps to recognise how people of the western world have acted, can't really say behaved, when visiting this sacred and already known of site. The one thing that the western world is good at is importing a lot of crap into parts of the world that are not able to deal with it, and it is this anality of intention when pursuing a spiritual purpose that I discovered in myself and in all of those who had arrived at Machu Pitchu seeking to broaden their own spiritual horizons after a lifetime of socially instilled self and other ignorance all of those years ago. The world is wonderful, and the western world always covers its wonders in crap with every discovery that its citizens make. Who can recall the Celestine Prophecy, with its search for enlightenment in Peru, and of course at Machu Pichu, and which of those spiritual seekers left their crap behind, scattered around for others to deal with. Toilet paper hoards, and hoarders of course, you can flush and walk away at home, or try to ignore what you are leaving behind when visiting or plundering amazing parts of the world, but real enlightenment comes when you look down and see what you are bringing to the feast of life, and then learn to clear up your mess and relate to the earth and eveyone on it, inluding yoursaelf, in different and humane way.

29:05 and 29:17 No one can look at those nubs and say they are lifting bosses, there is obviously a much different reason for the nubs being there. 30:57 the nub on the side of the hitching post monolith, that is not for lifting either. Great footage and narration Ben, as always. The ancient megalithic builders of Peru used nubs in their architecture, which is proven to be a global phenomena. The megalithic pyramid builders used nubs in their architecture. What I find unique about the Egyptian and Peruvian examples is the stark, unadorned structures. Nubbed architecture in the Mediterranean region, Asia Minor and India by contrast have cultural embellishments on them; artistic motifs. So what could that mean about the Peruvian and Egyptian nubbed architecture? Could they be the first, and then nubbed architecture spread to Greece, Turkey, Lebanon, Iran, Syria, India, etc? Perhaps Yangshan Quarry in China also, I think it is the stark, plain and weird megalithic nubbed architecture that is the oldest.

If you get the chance, do the official Inca Trail to get to Machu Picchu. It's a 42km hike through the mountains along the same route and in some places even the same staircase the Incans used. Along the way there are a few settlements and barracks that you get to explore. Obviously not as impressive as Machu Picchu, but way fewer people around, and it's set in these misty mountains, it's a lot of uphill and downhill, carrying your backpack and sleeping bag and mat. Porters carry the rest of the camping essentials and food, and actually run ahead of you to prepare for lunch or set up a campsite.

​@@libertyblueskyes2564 Well yes, smoking will do that. I'm pretty sure everyone knows that without having to work in medicine. Have you ever looked at the warnings on tobacco products? They're covered with such images. I wasn't suggesting smoking was healthy. I was pointing out that smokers are far better at altitude because they're bodies are adapted to coping with less oxygen (bc their lungs are black and nasty). So, when it comes to places like Machu Picchu the smokers find it far easier up there than non smokers (counter intuitively). My marathon running friend was minutes behind me and I am not fit (obvs, being a smoker). This isn't an anecdotal example, it's a pretty well-known fact. /shrug

@@TheSpecialJ11 Yes, the body adapts. A smoker has to get used to less oxygen, so at altitude not smoking (for a smoker) is much the same as normal altitude with a cigarette. I don't actually smoke cigarettes any more though. Machu Picchu was 20 years ago for me. I smoke a pipe nowadays and I don't really inhale it, so I'm a lot healthier than most people, who don't live an active lifestyle in the country with a healthy home grown/cooked diet. My pipe pales in comparison to the carcinogenic effects of processed food and a sedentary city lifestyle drowning in a fog of pollution.

Sunsettvu Until one knows how it was done, the methods used are mysterious. It is reasonable to consider any plausible possibility. It is worth noting early and persistent speculation that Lake Titicaca was once at sea-level. Darwin’s Geology of South America brims with his observations of raised shorelines. This video mentions limestones from nearby quarries and limestones are deposited in shallow water.... yet the quarries mentioned may also be 8000 ft above sea-level. Rapid uplift of the Andes seems like a possibility to me, so, to add my $.02, instead of hypothesizing higher sea-level, perhaps a more plausible condition is a much lower elevation of the Andes, but could they have been so much lower in the last 12K years? That is an extraordinary claim requiring extraordinary evidence.

Simply difficult to believe a civilisation without written language can have amazingly higher technology in almost impossible architecture.

Not written language known to Europeans and strangers. Same with mathematics. The thing is Inca people had famous architects. The amautas were capable to read the kipus and were the wisest af all man. They knew the secrets of the numbers and symbols. On your mind my ancestors were some kind of savages discovering everything WE know They built with their hands and hardworking. That's insulting. South american cultures were not savages but thriving people with so much knowledge our wise man used to be taken to mayan courts. We know the names of the four architects that built Saksayhuaman but alas because we today can't figure out how the Inca were capable of building such a wall well let's say the wall was still there and the poor Inca just found himself stumbling with its rocks 500 years ago.

Great to see you back at Machu Picchu. My brain has been locked onto the stone working of the megalithic polygonal constructions. Remember a little girl trapped in a well in the US. Jessica McClure is her name. Anyway, the final events in her rescue involved a water-pressure system that literally dissolved the stone in a seriously controlled way. That would explain many of the signs we see on these megalithic polygonal constructions. This machine cut out more stone in half an hour than professional minors could get done with jack-hammer and power tools over 3 days! That has to be the type of technologies used by the First World Culture. One of these days we will wake-up to the reality that the people of Earth were not who and what mainstream education tells us they were. Randal Carlson, Graham Hancock, Robert Schoch, Brian Forester, Anthony West, etc... ad nauseam. The better minds of our time tell us that we are not aware of who and what the people of Earth were. Yet, the Younger Dryas epoch is never mentioned in academia. Well, not well-mannered academia anyway.

[@ian-c.01]

Water pressure is a very powerful tool and does not require highly advanced modern machinery to produce. It could be created very simply using rock pistons and cylinders with leather seals and flexible green bamboo for pipes. I'm not sure there is any evidence in S America of any possible artifacts that may have once been used for that purpose but there are plenty of unexplained stone boxes in Egypt which could be used for creating high pressure water. It would be interesting to see if anyone is attempting to build such systems and use them in that way.

Megalitchic structures all over the world appear to be from times we basically have no record of. In the case that those structures really are from 10.000+ BC, there also is the possibility that prehistoric animals where used in order to transport those stones. With the end of the "Ice Age" there seems to be decline in size of construction elements, which could be explained by the fact, that, from then on,only horses and oxes could be used to fulfill such tasks.

"Viruses" don't exist. The concept is merely a ghostly invention of Modern Biology, a direct outgrowth of the Middle Ages superstitious belief that dis-ease (body discomfortable behaviour) was caused by invisible "evil spirits" attacking entities from outside the human body. The chemist Louis Pasteur who was and remains an accused, exposed, and convicted plagiarizer and manipulator of mid to late 1800's biological research was brought before the French Academy of Science 3 major times for having copied and purposefully contorted Biologist Prof Bechamp's work as part of a fraudulent campaign to maintain within emerging modern biology the idea that invisible-to-the-eye dead chemicals from the outside were responsible for humanity's ills, allowing for Pasteur and his sponsoring pharmaceutical industry clan to continue to sell highly profitable chemical poisons (now euphemistically called medicines and drugs) to the masses as a continuance of the family's profitable snake oil industry of the Middle Ages. Nutrition, which includes digestion, absorption, assimilation, and waste elimination, is the fundamental activity of Life. Cooked foods are not normal to the human species, it having domesticated/civilized itself only recently in time. Cooked and/or processed food consumption requires more metabolic work than any other activity possible, tiring out all the organs (digestive, waste-eliminative, brain, nerves) of the body resulting in habitual consumers of cooked and/or processed foods regularly experiencing episodes of overly-high levels of internal, lymphatic, acidic metabolic waste (e,g., carbonic, lactic, and uric acids) which prevents oxygen transport from red blood cells to body cells, experienced as tiredness/exhaustion/fatigue. As a direct consequence, the cells, organs, and body itself act symptomatically (abnormally, in discomfort), secreting mucous, suffering irritation (itchiness, tingles, etc), secreting mucous (runny nose, mucous-filled sinuses, etc), nerve pain (head and body aches), elevated temperatures from inefficiently-working cells/organs (fever), and so forth. These symptoms are collectively known as "cold" and "flu", called dis-ease (discomfort) of the body, i.e., disease, a behavioural condition of an overworked body. "Viruses" have never been isolated nor proven to be the cause of anything, never satisfying even one of Koch's postulates of Medicine/Biology. They are dead genetic matter (genomes) resulting from dying cells. One million cells of the human body die every second and are replaced by adjacent cells that divide (reproduce) to create a replacement cell. Profit-seeking Mod Biology/Medicine/Pharma seek an outside, invading "bad guy" (evil entity) to explain away the abnormal behaviour of the overly waste-filled body. These dead molecules of spent Dna/Rna are electron-microscopically tiny, and Mod Biol/Medicine/Chemistry/Pharma sees what it wants to see and calls it what it wants to call it, promoting the nonsense through its sibling Media Industry, another sibling being the Manufactured Food Industry. Its a profiteering, racketeering operation extended from the Middle Ages by the same underlying family that always has owned, run, and controlled these humanity-preying practices, beyond extremely profitable. Modern Biology is not biology, it is chemistry, founded on chemistry via chemist Pasteur and his profit-seeking cohorts, incorrectly believing, like all of Chemistry, that all molecules, including Dna, are dead/inert, not living, thusly claiming that the cell is the unit of life, a miraculous combination of dead chemicals that can magically maintain and reproduce itself into similarly chemically-constructed units that, again, magically evolve into organs and bodies. Nothing could be further from the truth. Mod Biology fundamentally does not understand what Life is, and thusly has no idea of what health and disease are. Mod Biology is basically Medicine (practice of treating humans with chemicals), which is based on Pharmaceutics, poisons euphemistically called drugs. Life is defined as matter that can maintain and reproduce itself. The smallest known substance/particle that can maintain and reproduce itself is identified by biology as the Dna molecule, called a genome. Mod Biol calls Dna the principle molecule of Life, i.e., a dead chemical that Life "uses", not recognizing that the Dna molecule is Life itself. Dna equals Life, Dna is Life. When a Dna molecule (genome) becomes chemically altered (e.g., poisoned) such that it can no longer function properly, it is called dead, a non-living chemical (dead matter). There are two types of matter in the universe (existence), that which is living (beyond rare) and that which is non-living (dead, beyond common). Under specific, unique, supporting conditions, the Dna molecule can synthesize itself into complex structures called organelles (bacteria, mitochondria, protids), yeast, fungii, and moulds, which can evolve over eons into larger, much more complex Dna-manufactured and -operated bodies called cells, organs, bodies, and species. Dna creates and maintains environments for itself to exist/live in, each environment supporting the form the Dna takes, called a body, of many possible varieties (species). When the supporting environment (internal and external to a particular Dna body) that the Dna body lives in becomes altered (e.g., too acidic) and is no longer supportive, the smaller Dna bodies of the larger, affected body begin to automatically break the body down into simpler components that can exist in that new environment. The breaking down process is called "dying". Thus we see a cell "dying" in an overly waste-saturated lymph fluid environment. The cell could also "die" if its internal environment was altered as well, as by, say, a poison or becoming too acidic or alkaline from, say, over work. Disease and Health are the process of Life under different internal/external environmental conditions. Health is the body acting at ease, i.e., normally, and disease is the body acting not at ease, or at dis-ease, i.e., disease. Disease is not an entity that attacks a body from the outside, it is the body acting abnormally because it's supporting environment has changed into an nonsupporting environment. If the unsupportive environment is sustained too long, the body begins to break down, called degenerative disease, e.g., clogged arteries, nerve damage, mineral crystal deposits, etc. Acute diseases are temporary malfunctioning of the body, such as when the body can only slowly remove acidic waste due to becoming tired (e.g., cold symptoms). The normal, evolved diet of the human being is predominantly raw, ripe tropical fruits with some juicy fruit-like vegetables (tomatoes, bell peppers, celery, lettuce, cucumbers, etc), plus a few nuts and seeds. Ripe fruits are already enzymatically broken (called ripening) into simple sugars, amino acids, and fatty acids, reguiring little digestion, resulting in the human evolving a very weak digestive and waste-elimation system. The eating of cooked and or processed foods highly taxes this weak system, resulting in periodic waste-elimination crises, called flus and colds. Feed a fever, starve a cold. I.e., continue eating while experiencing a cold, and the body will only become more polluted in its waste, resulting in more severe symptoms, even possible death from auto-toxicity. I.e., don't run yourself to death, follow only health creating habits - proper foods, adequate sun, warmth, fresh air, sleep, rest, water if thirsty, socialization, occasional sex, productive work, emotional calm, mental pursuit, body movement (exercise), and so forth, including, highly important, avoiding all body/Dna/life-damaging poisons such prescription drugs, medicine, alcohol, caffeine, smoke, spices, herbs, condiments, recreational drugs, chemicals, food additives, preservatives, noxious substances, etc. Cooked food is very stimulating to the internal glands and organs, giving the brain a high as excessive, organ-stimulating hormones circulate in the blood, resulting in low energy (fatigue) and cell/organ/lymph/blood/body over-saturation in metabolic waste later and accompanied, unpleasant symptoms, the person reaching for the over-stimulating cooked food again to whip the body back into hormone production (adrenaline, dopamine, etc) and organ work to avoid the discomforting feelings. Thusly, the addiction cycle is created, a self-defeating mental-emotional-physical habit. A person can create an addiction with any over-stimulating or falsely-stimulating substance such as processed food, alcohol, caffeine, smoke, spices, herbs, drugs, etc. The addiction is begun by not recognizing the over-stimulating, falsely-stimulating nature of the substance ingested. I.e., refrain from abnormal activities, or addiction can easily result. Cooked food addiction is very difficult to overcome, it's a thousand mild, body-stressing and -damaging chemical addictions in one. It's much easier to blame an invisible, nonexistent, imagined evil spirit, e.g., a "virus", for a person's periodic ills and woes, and then grab another sandwich and coffee, or pretzels and beer, whatever the person's favourite bad habit has become. Life is simple, but profiteers and racketeers make it complicated and ugly.
