FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda
It was back in June 2010 that Estupinan, now a researcher with the French
Institute for Andean Studies (IFEA), found what she describes as an “Inca
archeological site” high on the Andes’ eastern flank amid plunging
canyons. Nearby are a small local farm and a facility for raising fighting
cocks.
But in the area called Sigchos, about 45 miles south of Quito, up on a hill
dotted with brush, there is more – much more: she found a complex of walls,
aqueducts and stonework that lie inside the Machay rural retreat. Machay
means burial in the Quechua language.
“This is a late imperial design Inca monument that leads to several
rectangular rooms that were built with cut polished stone set around a
trapezoidal plaza,” Estupinan explained to AFP.
Archeologist Tamara Bray, of Wayne State University in Michigan, and a
colleague of Estupinan, confirmed that the site boasts “an Inca edifice
that is phenomenally well preserved and quite important scientifically.”
Inside the facility, a walled walkway starts at the Machay River and one can
see the shape of an “ushno”, essentially stairs that form a
pyramid believed to be the (capac’s) emperor’s throne. Meanwhile a tiny cut
channel of water would spout out a small waterfall nicknamed “the
Inca’s bath”.
The director at the Lima-based IFEA, Georges Lomne, said the find appears to
confirm that the Incas were active and present in a lowland area well
outside what their best-known area of operations were: Andean highlands.
“Malqui-Machay is part of a broader complex that also would have included
the Quilotoa lagoon and the area called Pujili (Cotopaxi),” he
explained.
“All of this belonged to Atahualpa. It was his personal fiefdom in the
way that French (and other) kings had royal domains,” Lomne added.
Bray also stressed that “very few such Inca sites have been found in this
type of tropical lowland. I think that the Incas used it as a sort of
getaway.”
Estupinan has some more specific ideas.
She believes Malqui-Machay is Atahualpa’s final resting place. The tomb of the
last capac (emperor) of Tahuantinsuyo, the trans-Andean empire.
While many experts have other theories, Estupinan believes that when Atahualpa
was killed his remains could have been brought by his most loyal man,
Ruminahui, to Sigchos for burial, to a place where Ruminahui based his fight
for survival against the European intruders.
