Construction of this ancient walled structure situated in Machu Picchu, Peru, was begun by emperor Pachacuti in 1440. It took over 100 years to complete.

The wall is composed of numerous types of rocks such as dark andesite, Yucay limestones, and diorite blocks. The wall is nearly 1,969-foot long and has a zig-zag structure. A single block from the wall is said to weigh hundreds of tons. The wall once protected a tower and a sun temple. Click On the Next Button to See Next.

  1. WTF? – how did something un-discovered make the list of The Most Mysterious Archaeological DISCOVERIES Of All Time? At No 1 no less!

  2. Hello Mikw!
    You have a very unusual name there!
    Apparently you misunderstood.
    While some think it could be Atlantis, it has not been officially confirmed as such. Therein lies the mystery and the reason why it tops the list.
    At any rate, thanks for reading!

  5. Hi!
    To be fair, that is not always true. In fact, when I initially publish the articles that i write, you can scroll. So keep a closer eye on this website and you will be able to scroll the articles before they are permanently formatted. Oh, and let’s be clear: Many other websites also use that click next format as well. Thanks for your comment. I will assume from your brief missive that you think everything else is perfect or at least to your individual liking.
