No, the Mayans did not build Machu Picchu. This famous archaeological site is actually attributed to the Inca civilization, not the Mayans.
Machu Picchu, located in present-day Peru, was constructed in the 15th century under the reign of Inca Emperor Pachacuti. It was a royal estate and an important religious site. The Incas were known for their incredible engineering skills, which allowed them to create sophisticated agricultural terraces, impressive stone structures, and a complex network of roads and trails throughout the Andes mountains.
On the other hand, the Mayans thrived in Mesoamerica, primarily in present-day Mexico, Belize, Guatemala, and parts of Honduras and El Salvador from around 2000 BC to the Spanish conquest in the 16th century. While the Mayans are known for their remarkable achievements in writing, astronomy, architecture, and mathematics, their civilization was distinct and separate from that of the Incas.
In summary, while both civilizations are noted for their contributions to human history, Machu Picchu is a remarkable testament to Incan ingenuity, not Mayan craftsmanship.
