Machu Picchu Construction explores how the Inca civilization, renowned for Inca stonework, built the iconic citadel of Machu Picchu in the Andes Mountains without the use of iron tools or the wheel. The book examines the sophisticated engineering, architectural design, and the Inca's societal organization that made this feat possible. Readers gain insights into the intricate stone-cutting techniques, the profound understanding of the environment, and the logistical solutions employed to sustain this complex settlement.

This methodical approach, combined with archaeological surveys, geological studies, and ethnohistorical documents, offers a fresh perspective on the Inca's capabilities in ancient construction techniques and their mastery of sustainable design. The book culminates by discussing the long-term maintenance strategies used by the Inca, providing a comprehensive understanding of this architectural marvel.
