On: Machu Picchu older than expected, study reveals

I am a Peruvian interested in Incan culture. I think its way interesting that they think that because Machu Picchu was built 20 years earlier, that Pachacuti, who is thought to have built Machu Picchu was conquering tribes much earlier. I believe it makes sense that Pachacuti built Machu Picchu, works by ancient rulers were often built by the rulers themselves when they were alive. I believe Pachacuti built Machu Picchu. Some people think its more ancient, but Incans like everybody else are normal people, they built this monument for prestige during the reign of the greatest Inca.
