“There’s no doubt that the Geography provided a general kind of inspiration to many of the great features of the Italian Renaissance. Notable among them was Leon Battista Alberti. By turns an architect, an artist, an art theorist, a cartographer, a cryptographer, a grammarian, a satirist, a sculptor, and a surveyor (among other things), Alberti clearly spent time studying (Claudius Ptolemy’s) Geography. In a work titled Praise of the Fly, for example, he mentioned Ptolemy by name and described his ‘picture of the world” as being organized by ‘intersecting parallels drawn perpendicular to one another.’ He also seems to have had the Geography in mind when he composed his highly influential 1435 treatise On Painting—the first work to codify the principles of linear perspective and put them into writing.”

“Portuguese sailors brought home little of value in the years immediately after the rounding of cape Bojador (off the coast of west Saharan Africa), the most promising discovery came in 1436, when, some 120 leagues south of the Cape, [Prince] Henry’s sailors came across an inland waterway that they assumed was the mouth of the River of Gold, further investigation proved this theory wrong—but it also revealed that the waterway was a refuge for thousands of basking, blubbery sea lions, the animals offered the sailors at least some hope of a profit, Azurara wrote, in the form of skins and oils that could be sold at home, so the sailors carried out ‘a great slaughter’ and returned home with their bounty, Prince Henry, the owner of a monopoly on the production of soap in Portugal, professed himself greatly pleased.”

The Chimu Civilization on the north coast of Peru is flourishing, but will be taken over by the Inca in about 45 years
Machu Picchu in Peru is built between this year and 1472 as an estate for the Inca emperor, Pachacuti (this is what the most recent archaeologists are saying in 2021 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machu_Picchu)
An interesting question is, did the Incas intend to line up Machu Picchu along with the Nazca tracts, Ollantaytambo, Cusco, Sacsayhuaman, Paratoari Pyramid (all in Peru), as well as Dogon Country (Mali, Africa), Tassili N’Ajjer (Mali, Africa), Siwa (Egypt) The Great Pyramid of Giza (Egypt), Petra (Jordan, Middle East), Ur (Iraq), Persepolis (Iran), Mohenjo Daro (Pakistan) [writing close to Easter Island’s and has radioactive skeletons], Khajuaraho (India), Pyay (Burma), Sukhothai (Thailand), Angkor Wat (Cambodia), Easter Island, which are all in a circle around the earth? Or was it coincidence? (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2fS9ixfQ_no 1:15:26 hour/minute mark)
Keep in mind that the stone circles (over 10 million of them), including Adam’s Calendar (an astronomical calendar) have been in South Africa and Zimbabwe for at least 74,500 years by this time (see [link year page] B.C.); Also keep in mind that Adam’s Calendar in South Africa is perfectly in line at 31 degrees longitude with the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt (see [link year page] B.C.); It’s just odd how these places seem to line up and connect
