By Sam king
why is consisted one of the
worlds most famous
archeologist finds
—  The discovery of Machu Picchu found by hiram

bingham is consisted one of the world’s most
important archaeological finds because it is
ancient lost city and because it hadn't bean fore
many years ago
Who found it are they
famous for other finds
Hiram Bingham only discoed Machu Picchu in his life
time but that discovery tuned out to be one of the
worlds most important disscovery
It was found July 24th 1911
How was it found? Was it
found accidentally or
purposefully?
—  A group of quechuans led the explorer to the peak
of Machu Picchu meaning “old peak” he had then
come across the ruins that we know to day
What difficulties were
encountered? How were they
overcome?
—  The site was much deteriorated and overgrown but
they over come it by many years of excavation
another difficulty would be the steepness of the
terrain which ranged from 2,600 to 4,600 meters
What artifacts were found
and what do they reveal
about the culture/people
who left them behind?

offerings including pottery , stones and a
ceremonial pot-where found during a excavation
Where are the artifacts now?
The artifacts are in Casa Concha, Cusco, Peru
Can people view them?
—  Yes you can see them because is it is a open
museum
What has the find taught
you about history and the
work of archaeologists and
historians?

—  It has taught me that the historians have built

starches that we could not build today and that
artifacts can be preserved for hundreds of years
and how long it tacks to get all of the danced vines
and overgrown grass
