Machu Pichhu a Inca's Town that have mystery inside it.
In the middle of Machu Picchu, to the eastern main apple of the residential building, the great central square was found. It was placed next to a sacred square, on which open stone temples were located. One of these buildings was even named the House of the
Priest. Nearby, the Intihuatana temple or "the place where the sun was fixed" was found. That temple may have been connected to the ceremonies celebrating sunrise at the moment of the summer solstice. The edifice included an altar with a stone pole, probably used for following its alignment with the
sun during the solstice, but details about the ceremony are still not well known. Most Inca temples and altars are oriented on the ax east-west. The Sun God, Inti, was the most important Inca god, a symbol of life and fertility because of the light and heat it emanated.
What caused the city's decline? An epidemic is not excluded, as in an isolated, closed community, a disease would have spread rapidly. It could also be that the end was violent, but no proof of this has been found.
Wow!! So Cool...!!
