Staying in Peru, an amazing discovery of a chamber at Machu Picchu has brought much interest about what it contains, but it seems the Peruvian authorities are blocking any excavation work.
Thierry Jamin, who has found the entrance, has used electronic equipment to determine that there is a chamber behind the rock-covered entrance, and much speculation now ensues about what may lie within. Jamin suggests it may contain the burial of the Inca king Pachacuti Inca Yupanqui, and thus a treasure of gold, but that may turn out to be a dream rather than a reality.
Either way, the discovery is rather exciting.
