By 1440, during his campaign to Vilcabamba, Clough Picchu was conquered by Pachacutec Inca Tawantinsuyu first 19 (1438-1470). The site of Machu Picchu must have impressed the monarch for their unique characteristics within the sacred geography cusqueña.20 and therefore have ordered to be built there, in 1450, an urban complex with buildings of great civil class religiosas.21 A new version of origin of Machu Picchu Peruvian researcher founded by Julio Valdivia Carrasco is circulating and it was holding the Inca Viracocha who ordered the construction of this world wonder about in the years 1380-1400 [citation needed].Machupicchu is believed that a mobile population was as most incaicas llactas, ranging between 300 and 1000 belonging to an elite habitantes22 (possibly panaca members Pachakuti) 23 and acllas. It has been shown that agricultural force consisted mitimaes or mitmas settlers (mitmaqkuna) from different corners of imperio.24Machu Picchu was not any view from an isolated complex, so the myth of the "Lost City" and "secret refuge" of the Inca sovereign lacks grip. The valleys that converged on the creek formed a densely populated region that dramatically increased agricultural productivity from the Inca occupation in 1440.25 The Incas built there many administrative centers, the most important of which were Patallacta Quente and Brand, 26, and abundant agricultural complexes formed by agricultural terraces. Machu Picchu of these complexes depended for food, because the fields of the agricultural sector of the city would be insufficient to supply the población.27 The intraregional communication was possible through networks Inca roads, eight roads came to Machu Picchu.28 the small city of Picchu was reached differentiate from neighboring populations by the unique quality of its main buildings.On the death of Pachacutec, and according to the Inca royal customs, this and other personal property would have passed to his panaca administration, which was directing the revenue produced the cult of the mummy of the deceased is presumed inca.29 that this situation would have remained during the governments of Tupac Yupanqui (1470-1493) and Huayna Capac (1493-1529).Machu Picchu had to lose some of its importance when competing in prestige with the personal property of the successor sovereign. In fact, opening wider and safer road between Ollantaytambo and Vilcabamba (the Valley Amaybamba) made ​​the route's Gulch Picchu was less empleada.30
