11 - Inca Lands by Hiram Bingham

from Inca Lands · host Hiram Bingham

Journey with us as we delve into the thrilling tale of Prof. Hiram Bingham of Yale who, against all odds, made the most stunning archaeological discovery of his era - the ruins of Machu Picchu perched on an Andean peak in Peru. In an age when virtually every inch of the earths surface seemed explored, Binghams discovery of an entire city, untouched for two thousand years, caused a stir of excitement and envy. Binghams 1922 book, INCA LANDS Explorations in the Highlands of Peru, offers a comprehensive recount of his expedition in the summer of 1911 and subsequent excavation in 1912, supported by Yale and The National Geographic Society. This podcast brings to life his incredible journey, filled with palaces, temples, and uncharted territories, offering listeners a chance to experience the excitement of discovery and the mystery of ancient civilizations.
