  Agustín Lizárraga, a landlord from Cusco-Peru, was the first person known to have found the ruins in the 1890's. He even made a small profit by taking people to the ruins. Nonetheless, lots of people native to the region already knew about ruins. A few years later, American archaeologist Hiram Bingham heard about this place and in 1911 organized an expedition to "rediscover" Machu Picchu. Unfortunately, Bingham took thousands of objects (artifacts, jewelry, mummies, pottery, etc) from the ruins to University of Yale as a short-term loan from the Peruvian government and almost 100 years later, Yale refuses to return the pieces. Currently, Yale is facing a lawsuit from the Peruvian government as they are claiming ownership of the pieces.

"El Condor Pasa (If I Could)"
Simon & Garfunkel lyrics

 

 I'd rather be a sparrow than a snail
Yes I would, if I could, I surely would
I'd rather be a hammer than a nail
Yes I would, if I only could, I surely would

Away, I'd rather sail away
Like a swan that's here and gone
A man gets tied up to the ground
He gives the world it's saddest sound
Its saddest sound

I'd rather be a forest than a street
Yes I would, if I could, I surely would
I'd rather feel the earth beneath my feet
Yes I would, if I only could, I surely would


Peruvian Yma Sumac
The first Latin American to have her star hall of fame in Hollywood
The women with the largest human singing voice range, 5 octaves
"El Condor Pasa" was created in Perú as a purely instrumental melody.
It reached the heavens, thanks to NASA, and has numerous tributes,
as you can appreciate in several video samples here.
Condor flying over the Peruvian Colca Canyon,
the deepest canyon in the world
The misterious Sacsayhuaman Fortress in Cusco, Peru studied by the world Yma Sumac Sacsayhuaman, one of the 7 Wonders of the World
