A Detailed Picture Of "Inca City"

Illuminati Member writes "Space.com has an article that shows off new, high quality pictures, from the Mars Global Surveyor, that shows what Inca City truely is. In 1972 the Mariner 9 took some snapshots of Mars and one picture showed ridges formed in a peculier manner. This was eventually dubbed 'inca city' for its unusual formation. Now, the MGS has given us the true picture of this anomaly. Interesting thing was how the formations could possibly be more proof of the existance of water. The intensity as the picture was beamed to us from the satellite was high, and the excitment at what it showed was grand."

I think these are different objects; I think the Inca City is a southern formation, while the Cydonia area of Mars is in the northern hemisphere.
As for Maya constellations, it's been a long time since I've actually seen the names, but IIRC, they tended to be animals, so I doubt that Gemini was represented as twin humans.
