Скачать или смотреть THE WALLS THAT MOVE: How Inca Engineering Defied Earthquakes

For centuries, Machu Picchu has been seen as a beautiful ancient city perched on unstable mountains. But beneath its stunning appearance lies one of the most advanced examples of earthquake-resistant engineering ever built.

In this episode of Behind the Making Process, we break down the real science behind Inca stone walls—how they were designed not to resist earthquakes, but to move safely with them.

Discover the engineering principles that made Machu Picchu endure centuries of seismic activity, including:
• Why polygonal stone shapes prevent cracks from spreading
• How dry stone masonry allows controlled movement during earthquakes
• How inward-leaning walls use gravity for stability
• Why trapezoidal doors and windows reduce structural stress
• How energy dissipation protects walls without mortar or steel
• Why modern engineers still study Inca construction today

This is not a myth or speculation.
This episode is based on archaeology, physics, and modern seismic engineering.

No lost technology. No fantasy. Just human knowledge, observation, and design.

If you enjoy documentaries about ancient engineering, architecture, archaeology, and unexplained historical achievements grounded in real science, this episode is for you.
