The Secret Temple Of The Rainbow Of Peru. Great Temple of Wari, Peru. Ancient "Lost City" Discovered in Peru, Official Claims. January 16, 2008 Ruins recently discovered in southern Peru could be the ancient "lost city" of Paititi, according to claims that are drawing serious but cautious response from experts.
The presumptive lost city, described in written records as a stone settlement adorned with gold statues, has long been a grail for explorers—as well as a lure for local tourism businesses. A commonly cited legend claims that Paititi was built by the Inca hero Inkarri, who founded the city of Cusco before retreating into the jungle after Spanish conquerors arrived. On January 10 Peru's state news agency reported that "an archaeological fortress" had been discovered in the district of Kimbiri and that the district's mayor suggested it was the lost city. Mayor Guillermo Torres described the ruins as a 430,000-square-foot (40,000-square-meter) fortification near an area known as Lobo Tahuantinsuyo. The state media report quotes Torres as saying the area will be "immediately declared" a cultural tourism site. Search for Inca 'lost city' in Amazon may endanger indigenous people. A French writer and adventurer plans to explore one of the most remote parts of the Peruvian Amazon in search of a "lost" or "secret city" that may have been built by the Incas, but there are fears that the expedition could endanger the health of isolated tribes that have never been exposed to common human diseases.
Thierry Jamin believes that the city, which he calls "Paititi", could lie somewhere in a 215,000-hectare protected area called the Megantoni National Sanctuary in the Cuzco region of south-east Peru. "The magnificent discoveries realised by my group in the valleys of Lacco, Chunchusmayo and Cusirini in the north of the department of Cuzco lead towards a precise zone situated in the national sanctuary of Megantoni," Jamin told the Guardian via email. "Several natives of the forest – Matsiguengas – assert that 'monumental ruins' exist at the top of a strange square mountain.
I think that we are very close to officialise the existence of this big archaeological site. " Paititi-Eldorado, the Incas secret city. It is one of the most fascinating stories of the Inca mythology.
And it is so today the biggest archaeological enigma of South America. An enigma which we are maybe about to drill. The inca emperor, Son of the Sun, the god living of the Andes. (Photo: Thierry Jamin, June, 2007) From what one knows thanks to the chronicles and to the old legendary traditions, Païtiti would have been an immense city that would be buried somewhere in the Peruvian Amazon Rain Forest.
