MACHU PICCHU, PERU - On the trail up to the Intihuatana a smaller example of an Inca "mirror rock" could be found, its outline a miniature replica of the mountains behind it. No one knows exactly why the Incas carved these stones this way, except perhaps as a way to honor the "mother earth" they worshipped.
