the holy relic of the Inca at Mount Huayna Picchu (right center mountain)! You will get a great bonus!!!

How to host:

Any civilisations are allowed. Player 7 is played by Inca and civilisation is Aztecs. Use computer player for it, difficulty moderate or hard (or choose a tough guy who wants a 3vs3vs1 - match!). Starting age for player 1-6: Dark age, player 7: Imperial or Post-Imperial age!
Player 8 is optional and can cooperate with player 7 by choosing player 7 color and same civilization (aztecs) as player 7!

Teams:

Many ways - Diplomacy,
3vs3vs1, (player 1,2,3 and 4,5,6 together, player 7 alone),
3vs3vs2 (player 7 and 8 coop together, they choose same player color and civilization),
6vs2
its up to you!

This map can also be played in single player mode (computer only) and works great!

History:

Machu Picchu is an old city of the Inca, built around 1450. It is also well known as the "Last Sanctuary of the Inca" or the "Lost City of the Inca". Machu Picchu (translation: "Old Peak", 2450 m alt.) is bordered by Huayna Picchu (translation: "Young Peak", 2700 m alt.) and surrounded by the Río Urobamba (translation: "Holy River", 2150 m alt. in the valley).
Machu Picchu was lost for a long time - not even the spanish colonists have found this old city. Just in 1911, the american Hiram Bingham III and some indians found the place - overgrown by tropical plants.
