I was just reading about Inca aqueducts last night, was stunned seeing some of the photos of the remaining features of their ancient absolute mastery of designing and moving incredible amounts quickly, efficiently, even through mountains, to population centers and agriculture use. Mind-boggling.

It was tremendous learning, but not surprising, that you are well informed and aware of their achievements. It's so regrettable that so few of the European-descended citizens have any idea any of this ever happened.

Thanks for taking the time to share the information. It was really great to learn.
