12. The Inca - Cities in the Cloud (Part 1 of 2)

PART 2: • 12. The Inca - Cities ...
High up on the craggy peaks of the Urubamba Canyon, a lost city lies wreathed in cloud...
In this episode, we explore the mountains of the Andes, and tell the story of the Inca Empire. Find out how these mountain people built the largest empire in the Western Hemipshere, in one of the toughest terrains on earth. With Inca poetry, Quechuan hymns and authentic Andean instruments, discover the unique culture of the Inca. And find out what happened to bring their society crashing down around them.

    The Inca say that the structures were already built before they got there. The Inca did not have the skills or knowledge to build the megalithic structures. There are often three different styles of stonework with the higher quality was on the bottom, a lesser quality in the middle and the Incan on the top is of very poor quality compared to the other two.

    You are confusing 'then' with 'than'. I think it's caused by how society tends to listen and watch videos rather than read books, that is the cause of the problem, it's a worldwide phenomena. Plus, the American accent doesn't help either, when pronouncing the word 'than', which does sound like 'then'. This should help you get it right: 'Then', used to explain something happening next: 'He then went to the market'. 'I get home, then I put the kettle on'. 'Than', (in your case), used when making a comparison: 'It cost more than I could afford'.. The comparison is 'this is more than that'... All the best in future.

Majestic beauty, nice people, people still living native America ways, the food is fabulous, ruins everywhere and prices are right. Everything but machu picchu was pretty cheap. I got rooms and day tours for under $30. $80 dollars a day for a single traveler doing lots of stuff and stuffing my face..lol Hint..flights are cheap and fast in Peru. Buses are super nice but unless your going up or down the coastal highway, they are slow in the mountains. Huscarean park and Trujillo in the north are not as popular as places in The South but should be. The one is a mountain park. The other is a city with a very nice square and many ruins from 2 cultures right outside town. Loved spain, Austria, Turkey and believe it or not southern Mexico. Maya mexico was super safe, lots of ruins, jungle and cloud forests, native Americans which were nice just not down by cancun. Merida, Palenque, San cristabol de la casas was a trip back in time.

I never had any interest in south American civilizations at all before, and the original podcast led me into several years of research, this work is absolutely the best I've ever run into. The most fascinating civilization and economic system I've ever heard of.

Rare is the gift of oratory that transfixes an audience to fully injest mounds of information, only to want more. Mr. Copper, your talents are immeasurable at bringing dusted history to living life with the best historical documentaries I have ever seen! I am a huge history buff, having watched every serious television historical documentary series made over the past four decades and your work is unequalled. You elicit an incredible range of emotions from your audience with your poetic and lyrical approach to the all-too-often tragic ends of past world cultures. Let the lesson ring out every time that we see one of your newest episodes.....every cultural operational system that helps a civilization exist is far more fragile than we can ever think.
