The Inca ruins of Machu Picchu were found by Hiram Bingham in 1911.

Hiram Bingham traveled thousands of miles with the assistance of The National Geographic Society in 1911. "The Lost City Of The Incas" is one of many books that describe Hiram Bingham's journey in detail. It was not without help from many, especially from one local Inca who helped Hiram Bingham find Machu Picchu! Machu Picchu was completely covered with brush and trees when Hiram Bingham arrived...
