Previous explorations by two Spaniards, a Basque, and two treasure-seeking Germans had actually located the ruins of Machu Picchu but saw no great significance to a cluster of overgrown stone walls and roofless houses made of polished stones that were sometimes bigger than a farm wagon and weighed several tons each. Bingham, by giving the small but highly planned city of Machu Picchu a memorable name and describing it in an entire issue of National Geographic, made this the leading tourist venue in South America.
