ollantaytambo incan stone step's by quikflikchiq

Ollantaytambo - Peru, Cusco incas were known to run up and down these steps but considering they were only about 4.5 - 5 foot tall - its a wonder that they could as the steps are very large and very high

I suppose the Incas had no problems with the altitude but it still seems a pretty odd way to want to behave. louis - Feb, 02 2008 10:02am Tara how much in centimeters is 4.5 - 5 foot tall ? quikflikchiq - Feb, 02 2008 11:02pm less than 150cm !! i am 5.6 foot tall and i had trouble walking up and down the steps. in fact down is harder - it really jolts on your knees
