The people living at Machu Picchu obviously knew what they were doing and they had a rather advanced culture there. But, what happened to them? Did the mighty Inca Civilization at Machu Picchu get the flu, or experience a devastating pandemic? It’s possible that due to the high-altitude and cold saw some sort of flu that ended that civilization because their lung capacity would have already been challenged up there.

If we ask some pandemic flu researchers about this, they are likely to say no, the flu did not kill them off. Why? Well, many of the scientists studying the flu viruses have jumped onto the Global Warming Band Wagon, and tried to come up with reasons that would prove that such pandemics will increase as the climate’s ambient temperature does too.

Yes indeed, I remember this majestic inca civilization. This city escaped the spanish siege during the 1500s because of it’s height in the towering Andes mountains. It was preserved like that for 1911 enabling archaeologists to take an important step forward in Inca Daily life and architecture.
