Hello, smarty pants and welcome to trusty trivia Thursday.
Today we're trekking through ancient stone trails and mountain mysteries as we uncover the awe-inspiring world of Machu Picchu.
But first, let's send a sky-high shout-out to Joey in Rancho Cucamonga, California.
We hear that you smart with us every day, because who's smarted is educational and funny and you love the characters.
That makes you an A-plus smarty-pants in our book.
Let's ascend into some ancient trivia.
Question one.
Where is Machu Picchu located?
Is it A, Peru, B, Egypt, or C, Atlantis?
If you said A, you are a mountain of smarts.
Machu Picchu sits high in the Andes Mountains of Peru and was once a hidden city of the Inca civilization.
Next question.
What was Machu Picchu mostly made of?
Is it A, wood, B, stone, Or C, marshmallows?
If you picked B, you are rock solid.
Machu Picchu was built with finely cut stone fit together without mortar.
The stones are so precisely put together that even a knife blade can't fit between the cracks.
Last question.
Why was Machu Picchu never discovered by Spanish conquerors?
Is it because A, it was a myth? was hidden deep in the mountains.
Or C. It had a cloaking device.
Did you go with B?
Incredible!
Its remote location kept it safe from Spanish invaders, and it remained largely unknown to the outside world until 1911.
You climbed the heights of knowledge, Smarty Pants.
Join us next Thursday for more Ancient Adventures.
