Estudio que describe la relación del hombre con su ambiente, la comprensión y respeto de la geomorfología, hidrología y topografía por parte de los incas, su consideración por el medio y su sensibilidad por las condiciones microclimáticas específicas. Ollantaytambo, una propiedad real del Inca Pachakuti (c. 1438-1490), es un complejo menos conocido que Machu Picchu, otra propiedad real. Sin embargo, no es un ejemplo menos impresionante y significativo de las habilidades arquitectónicas y de planificación de los incas. En Ollantaytambo se puede encontrar el espectro completo del programa constructivo de los incas. Existen evidencias de trabajos de infraestructura como canteras, caminos y puentes, fortificaciones, ríos canalizados, amplias terrazas agrícolas y sistemas de irrigación —muchos de los cuales continúan en uso— y mucha arquitectura en pie en forma de estructuras de almacenamiento, un asentamiento completo con edificios incas originales aún habitados, templos, fuentes, piedras grabadas y otros lugares de culto. Este libro es la única relación detallada de los logros de los arquitectos y planificadores incas en el lugar. La primera parte del libro es, además, la mejor guía para visitar el poblado, sus monumentos y alrededores.

This architectural study attempts to explain how the Incas, who did not have iron tools or a knowledge of the wheel, were able to mine and transport extremely heavy stone and rock, following which these materials were converted into remarkably large structures.

Cuando los europeos vieron por primera vez las estructuras monumentales de piedra en el extremo sur del lago Titicaca, en Bolivia, quedaron maravillados con la habilidad de quienes las produjeron. Estas construcciones han sido consideradas, con razón, la arquitectura de piedra más ingeniosa y hábil del mundo. Su precisión rivaliza con la de los incas hasta el punto de que desde los cronistas españoles del siglo XVI hasta los autores del siglo XX han afirmado que Tiahuanaco no solo sirvió a los incas como un modelo para la arquitectura y la mampostería de piedra sino que estos incluso importaron albañiles de la cuenca del Titicaca para construir sus edificios. Este cuidadoso estudio de Jean Pierre Protzen y Stella Nair, refuta esa idea y se adentra en cuestiones referentes a las técnicas de los picapedreros de Tiahuanaco, a la vez que se centra en su conocimiento de la geometría y en la extracción, corte y montaje de las piedras. Sin duda, los detallados análisis de las piedras de construcción permiten vislumbrar la arquitectura de Tiahuanaco, y la apariencia y las reglas que guiaron sus cánones de composición y producción.

David Hatcher Childress, popular Lost Cities author and star of the History Channel’s long-running show Ancient Aliens, takes us to the mysterious ruins in the mountains of Peru and Bolivia in search of ancient technology and the secrets of megalith building. In his new book, packed with photos and diagrams, Childress examines the amazing stonecutting at Puma Punku, a site neighboring the ancient ruins of Tiwanaku near Lake Titicaca in Bolivia. He looks at whether the so-called “Inca walls”-found in Cuzco and at other sites such as Sacsayhuaman, Ollantaytambo and Machu Picchu-were really made by the Incas. The evidence seems to support the idea that they were actually constructed by a far older culture. Childress examines the megalithic construction and underground chambers of Chavin in the Cordillera Blanca of Peru, possibly the oldest megalithic site in South America. He also speculates on the existence of a sunken city in Lake Titicaca and reveals new evidence that the Sumerians may have arrived in South America over 4,000 years ago. Childress demonstrates that the use of “keystone cuts” with metal clamps poured into them to secure megalithic construction was an advanced technology used all over the world, from the Andes to Egypt, Greece and Southeast Asia. He maintains that only power tools could have made the intricate articulation and drill holes found in extremely hard granite and basalt blocks in Bolivia and Peru, and that the megalith builders had to have had advanced methods for moving and stacking gigantic blocks of stone, some weighing over 100 tons. The incredible high-tech world of South America is illuminated in the informative and breezy style for which Childress has always been known. Chapters in the book include: The Lost World of South America; The Enigma of Ancient Technology; Ancient Technology at Tiwanaku and Puma Punku; The Sumerian Mining Complex at Tiwanaku; Mysteries of Lake Titicaca and the Towers; Ancient Technology in Cuzco; The Megaliths of Ollantaytambo; Did the Incas Build Machu Picchu?; and more!

David Childress, popular author and star of the History Channel’s show Ancient Aliens, brings us a stunning tale of archeological investigation on a megalithic scale. Childress looks into the enigma of obelisks and their purpose. Egyptologists tell us that obelisks are granite towers that symbolize a ray of the sun—a megalithic symbol of the Sun God Ra, later to be called Aton. Some obelisks weigh over 500 tons and are massive blocks of polished granite that would be extremely difficult to quarry and erect even with modern equipment. Why did ancient civilizations in Egypt, Ethiopia and elsewhere undertake the massive enterprise it would have been to erect a single obelisk, much less dozens of them? Were obelisks more than simple monuments? Were they energy towers that could receive or transmit energy? Childress takes us on an amazing journey through the history of the obelisk and its probable purpose as an energy tower. With discussions on Tesla’s wireless power, and the use of obelisks as gigantic acupuncture needles for earth, Childress shows us what the ancients were trying to achieve with their mysterious obelisks. Chapters include: Megaliths Around the World and their Purpose; Mysteries of the Unfinished Obelisk; The Crystal Towers of Egypt; The Obelisks of Ethiopia; Obelisks in Europe and Asia; Mysterious Obelisks in the Americas; The Terrible Crystal Towers of Atlantis; Tesla’s Wireless Power Distribution System; Obelisks on the Moon; more. 8-page color section.

This book aims at integrating archaeology with science in order to provide additional information with respect to a traditional archaeological anthropological perspective. It sheds light on Incan culture, the relation between human frequentation and environmental changes, the Incan architecture in relation with Andean cosmovision using, for the first time, diverse technological and scientific approaches including LiDAR remote sensing, geophysics and radio carbon dating. A number of recent studies conducted by Polish, Italian and Peruvian scientific missions in Machu Picchu, Chachabamba and Cusco are presented and discussed.

David Childress, popular author and star of the History Channel’s show Ancient Aliens, brings us the incredible story of the Cham: Egyptian-Hindu-Buddhist seafarers who ruled a realm that was as big as the Pacific Ocean. The mysterious Cham, or Champa, peoples of Southeast Asia formed a megalith-building, seagoing empire that extended into Indonesia, Fiji, Tonga, Micronesia, and beyond—a transoceanic power that reached Mexico, the American Southwest and South America. The Champa maintained many ports in what is today Vietnam, Cambodia, and Indonesia (particularly on the islands of Sulawesi, Sumatra and Java), and their ships plied the Indian Ocean and the Pacific, bringing Chinese, African and Indian traders to far off lands, including Olmec ports on the Pacific Coast of Central America. Statues in Vietnam of the Champa show men and women distinctly African in appearance and the Champa royalty were known to consist of nearly every racial group. They had iron tools and built megalithic cities of finely-cut basalt and granite, such as the city of My Son in central Vietnam. Its construction is identical to that at Tiwanaku in South America. Topics include: Who Were the Champa?; Cham and Khem: The Egyptian Influence on Cham; The Search for Metals; Trans-Pacific Voyaging; The Basalt City of Nan Madol; Elephants and Buddhists in North America; The Cham and the Olmecs; The Cham in Colombia; The Cham and Lake Titicaca; Easter Island and the Cham; tons more.

The world's most artful and skillful stone architecture is found at Tiahuanaco at the southern end of Lake Titicaca in Bolivia. The precision of the stone masonry rivals that of the Incas to the point that writers from Spanish chroniclers of the sixteenth century to twentieth-century authors have claimed that Tiahuanaco not only served as a model for Inca architecture and stone masonry, but that the Incas even imported stonemasons from the Titicaca Basin to construct their buildings. Experiments aimed at replicating the astounding feats of the Tiahuanaco stonecutters--perfectly planar surfaces, perfect exterior and interior right angles, and precision to within 1 mm--throw light on the stonemasons' skill and knowledge, especially of geometry and mathematics. Detailed analyses of building stones yield insights into the architecture of Tiahuanaco, including its appearance, rules of composition, canons, and production, filling a significant gap in the understanding of Tiahuanaco's material culture.
