For more than fifteen years, Thierry Jamin, a French archaeologist and
adventurer, has explored the jungles of south Peru in every possible
direction, searching for clues to the permanent presence of the Incas
in the Amazonian forest, and for the legendary lost city of Paititi. During
several expeditions in the jungle of the Madre de Dios, he studied the
site of the mysterious "pyramids" of Paratoari and the petroglyphs of
Pusharo

After the discovery of about thirty incredible archaeological sites,
located in the North of Cuzco, between 2009 and 2011, which include
several fortresses, burial and ceremonial, centers, and small Inca
cities composed by hundreds of buildings, and many streets, passages,
squares…, Thierry Jamin embarked on an incredible journey in Machu
Picchu.

A few months ago, Thierry Jamin and his team made what they think is
an extraordinary archaeological discovery in the Inca city discovered
by Hiram Bingham in 1911. This discovery was made possible thanks to the
testimony of a French engineer who lives in Barcelona-Spain, David
Crespy. In 2010, while he was visiting the lost city, David Crespy
noticed the presence of a strange “shelter” located in the heart of the
city, at the bottom of one of the main buildings.
For him, there was no doubt about it, he was looking at a “door”, an
entrance sealed by the Incas. In August, 2011, David Crespy, found by
chance an article about Thierry Jamin and his work in the French
newspaper the Figaro magazine. Immediately he decided to contact the
French researcher.

Thierry Jamin, who had investigated several burial sites in the
North of Cusco, listened carefully the story of David Crespy. He wanted
to confirm the facts behind the story. Accompanied by archaeologists of
the Regional Office of the Culture in Cusco, he was able to visit the
site several times. His preliminary findings are unequivocal: it is
indeed an entrance, blocked by the Incas at an undetermined moment of
history. This one is strangely similar to a burial site, such as the
ones Thierry Jamin and his companions have found in the valleys of Lacco
and Chunchusmayo.
In order to confirm the existence of cavities in the basement of the
building, in December 2011 Thierry and his team submitted and official
request to the Ministry of Culture in Lima, to perform a geophysical
survey with the help of electromagnetic (EM) conductivity instruments.
This license was granted a few months later.
Between April 9th and April 12th 2012, the electromagnetic survey
not only confirmed the presence of an underground room but several! Just
Behind the famous entrance, a staircase was also discovered. The two
main paths seem to lead to specific chambers, including to a main
squared one. The different techniques used by the French
researchers including a Molecular Frequencies Discriminator) allowed
them to highlight the presence of important archaeological material,
including deposits of metal and a large quantity of gold and silver!
Thierry Jamin is now preparing the next step: the opening of the
entrance sealed by the Incas more than five centuries ago. On May 22nd
2012, he officially submitted a request for authorization to the
Peruvian authorities which would allow his team to proceed with the
opening of the burial chambers.
This project, “Machu Picchu 2012″, is now extended for a period of six months. Project Website : http://www.machupicchu-2012.com
