Marcahuasi is a mythical place: for some, it is the magnetic and gravitational center of the planet, where a prodigious civilization lived 85 centuries ago; For others, it is just a spectacular plateau at about 4000 meters high, where the remains of a pre-Inca culture are located and where atmospheric agents shaped many rocks into the shape of human faces and animal bodies. My trip to Marcahuasi began in Lima, from where I took a bus to get to Chosica, a city located an hour away from the capital of Peru. The Peruvian researcher Paul Mazzei accompanied me. From Chosica you take a direct bus to San Pedro de Casta, a small town located at a...

The Peruvian esoteric researcher Daniel Ruzo (1900-1991) spent much of his life studying some very particular places on the planet, such as Marcahuasi (Peru) and Tepoztlán (Mexico). The Marcahuasi plateau is a legendary place: located at more than 4,000 meters above sea level in the Lima region, it has an approximate area of ​​4 square kilometers. In the center of the plateau are the remains of a pre-Inca citadel whose vestiges date back to the 8 th century AD. In addition, scattered on the plateau (or perhaps correctly located), there are many megalithic, anthropomorphic, zoomorphic and mythological sculptures, as well as some petroglyph...

The scientific theory initially accepted to explain the arrival of man in America is based on the idea that groups of Homo Sapiens entered the New World through the lands of Beringia, in a period between 14 and 10 thousand years ago. What is now the Bering Strait, between Asia and North America, was once a snowy plain, precisely because sea levels were lower than they are today, due to ongoing glaciation. Those groups of Sapiens, perhaps chasing herds of animals or searching for new lands, crossed Beringia and thus entered the New World. Some of them passed through the so-called “ice-free corridor”, others marched along the coast of North...

Ancient nomadic populations from the Neolithic found fertile places with a temperate climate in some areas of central Mexico and along the coast of the Caribbean Sea. Around 3000 BC, these groups of hunters and gatherers slowly transformed into farmers and their societies became sedentary, where the importance of the division of labor and elites grew more and more. Therefore, in the central area of ​​Mexico and on the southern coast of the Caribbean Sea, embryos of towns began to form, each of which was governed by lords who belonged to the upper classes, who had access to innovations and Above all, they were the intermediaries between th...
