If you're ready for an adventure of a lifetime, join us June 19 - 25 (2009) in Quito, Ecuador where I'll be co-hosting this adventure tour with legendary explorer Stan Grist. Together, we'll bring you seven amazing days of exploration into some of the most amazing sites and experiences near Quito, Ecuador. You'll see ancient pre-Inca ruins and witness first-hand the evidence that these ancient civilizations had direct knowledge of the Earth's position in the solar system, including its axis tilt relationship with our sun. Stan and I will be with you the whole way, exploring this amazing adventure with you and filming the ancient sites for NaturalNews readers! This once-in-a-lifetime adventure is limited to 20 people. Email us at vilcaland@gmail.com to reserve your spot on this tour. It's limited to 20 people. Reserve early, as we expect this to fill up very quickly. Read about the adventure tourWhat are the "Lost Cities of the Sun"?A very advanced civilization once lived in the Quito area long before the Incas ever arrived. Some archaeologists and anthropologists believe that the ancient kingdom of the Kitus was actually the root origin of all ancient American civilizations, and perhaps even of other major civilizations around the world. The ancient Kitus (later the Kitus-Caras) possessed an in-depth knowledge of astronomy and mathematics, especially geometry. They established a network of sacred solar temples and observatories, all centered about the equator. Following below is a brief description of each site that we will visit on this unique, adventure tour: June 20, 2009 - Day One: Orientation and Walking Tour of Historic Quito On the morning of Day 1, we will all meet to briefly discuss the coming week's adventures and what to expect from our adventures. Stan will share the background of his explorations and discoveries of the virtually unknown, Ancient Cities of the Sun. Then we will begin a walking tour of Historic Quito. Quito is the longest continuously inhabited city in the Americas. Our visit to historic Quito will take us to several sacred solar temple sites within the city as we begin to understand the ancient astronomical pattern. We will see sections of ancient tunnels that connect these sites. We will also visit La Compania, the Jesuit church where we will see no less than seven tons of gold covering the alter, walls and ceilings. Three excellent museums featuring ancient local history are also on the agenda. June 21, 2009 - Day Two: Catequilla, Rumicucho and Mitad del Mundo Summer Solstice Festivities Our day starts off with a fairly long hike from south to north along the axis leading directly to Catequilla Mountain (actually a very large hill), the very center of the astronomical pattern that we are investigating. We will ascend Catequilla and investigate the ruins we find up there. The ancient ones successfully located this site perfectly on the equator. Our GPS will reveal the site´s accuracy to you. This was the exact site of the most important Solstice celebrations in ancient times. Next on our schedule are the nearby ancient ruins of Rumicucho, which have been partially restored. The site is commonly thought to have been an Inca military installation. Indeed it was. However, Rumicucho was built long before the Incas ever arrived. It was originally built as a solar ritual site and observatory. At Rumicucho we will examine the ancient structures and discuss little-known astronomical alignments and aspects of them. We may find native ceremonies and celebrations going on at this site. Get articles like this delivered to you FREE in our popular email newsletter
