Produced for the exhibition "The Great Inka Road: Engineering an Empire" (http://americanindian.si.edu/inkaroad/),
on view at the National Museum of the American Indian in Washington,
D.C., through June 1, 2018. Every year, local communities on either side
of the Apurimac River Canyon use traditional Inka engineering
techniques to rebuild the Q'eswachaka Bridge. The old bridge is taken
down and the new bridge is built in only three days. The bridge has been
rebuilt in this same location continually since the time of the Inka.
This video is narrated by John Ochsendorf, professor of civil
engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and produced by
Noonday Films.
