Brothers of the Serpent

We are joined by Ben from UnchartedX, and Prof Shy from the "Evidence for Giants" episodes to discuss our recent trip to Peru. We look at multiple mysterious sites in Peru and discuss the megalithic stonework, the possibility of a lost civilization and lost technology that far pre-dates the ancient Inca to which these structures and carvings are normally attributed to.

The stonework in some of these places really is very mysterious and of a quality that is difficult to explain if the builders were using "conventional" stoneworking methods.
