The mystery of the Upside-down stones of Sacsayhuaman
Posted on Jul 7th, 2016
The builders of ancient Sacsayhuaman left behind precisely cut blocks of stone that have challenged our modern-day builders in many ways. But in addition to their numerous achievements in engineering and architecture, there are certain parts of Sacsayhuaman which are indicative perhaps of a giant cataclysm that wrecked the entire area thousands of years ago.
According to studies, experts believe that the Killke culture built the older sections of the site approximately 1,000 years ago. What is an interesting fact here is that the Inca themselves believed the site was constructed by an earlier unnamed race of people led by a mighty God, who descended from the skies.
How out ancestors managed to cut, lift transport and place into position stones that weigh hundreds of tons remains a profound archaeological mystery.
Did they have superhuman strength? Did giants exist back the? Or did they have lifting means that are unknown to modern-day humans?
One fascinating rock found at Sacsayhuaman is that of the massive granite stairs that appear to run upside down.
Many of the stones at Sacsayhuaman show evidence of being manipulated by unknown means thousands of years ago, yet many ancient sites display evidence indicative of a giant cataclysmic that shook the region in the past. The gigantic rock with the ‘upside-down’ stairs are one of the many pieces of a now lost puzzle.
Who were the ancient builders of Sacsayhumana? How did they manipulate with such ease granite? One of the hardest materials to work with.
