Scientists Finally Discovered How Ollantaytambo Built Their Monoliths

I’ve wanted to cover Ollantaytambo for a long time, because those 50 ton monoliths feel like they belong to a different set of rules. In this video I show you what the newest 3D scans are revealing about how these stones were shaped, moved, and fitted with that almost impossible precision, and why the clues keep pulling us back to water, ritual, and Inca belief. I’m off camera and a bit stuffy while recording this, but I couldn’t wait to share the discoveries, from the Incamisana water temple to CT scans that hint at deliberate mummification, and LiDAR that is peeling the jungle back around Machu Picchu and the Chachapoya world. If you’re into sacred engineering, hidden structures, and mysteries that only modern scanning tech can finally expose, you’re going to love this one. 0:00 Intro 0:35 The Incredible Megaliths of Ollantaytambo 6:21The Incamisana Water Temple 9:44 The Oldest Known Deliberate Mummification 14:48 New Scans Reveal The Inca’s Rivals 19:47 LiDAR Finds Secrets of Machu Picchu Step into the forgotten world of ancient civilizations and lost cities! https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLdLDHoLUjkJIWSvhueniZGE8IbgbAAQvS Merch and much more about Origins Explained - you can also leave a video topic idea for us here: https://linktr.ee/originsexplained #Ollantaytambo #inca #megaliths
