Is there evidence of an unknown ancient civilization that left its mark in the stone long before the Inca? In this video, we explore the mysterious archaeological site of Sikllakancha, located right next to Q'enqo and Sacsayhuamán in Cusco, Peru.

While thousands of tourists visit Q'enqo every day, Sikllakancha lies in relative obscurity. This site contains extraordinary examples of Hanan Pacha stonework, including strange scoop marks, V-shaped impressions, perfectly carved canals, and odd ledges cut directly into bedrock.

Did ancient builders use bronze and copper tools, or are we looking at an advanced geopolymer or stone-softening technique? Join us as we examine these strange formations and discuss who might have created them.
