___________________________________________________________
___Machu Picchu, meaning 'old mountain' in quechua, is situated 120 
kms north of Cuzco at 2430 m above sea level, in the middle of a 
tropical mountain forest. Machu Picchu remained unknown to the world 
until its discovery in 1911 by the American archeologist Hiram Bingham.
It was probably the most amazing urban creation of the Inca Empire at 
its height, with its giant walls, terraces and ramps. It is the place 
of some of the most magnificent examples of Inca masonry, e.g. the 
Puerta de Amarus (Gateway of Snakes).

@;Hanging Gardens
@PEDIAIMPROVE40
One extra happy citizen in every city. ____________________
___________________________________________________________ 
___In the reserve of El Vizcaíno, Baja California, the Sierra de 
San Francisco was home to a population now disappeared (100 B.C.-1300 A.D.,),
which left one of the most outstanding collections of rock paintings 
in the world. Remarkably well-preserved because of the dry climate and
the inaccessibility of the site, the paintings illustrate people and 
many animal species (mammals, fish, reptiles and birds), using extremely 
varied colors and techniques. 

@;Colossus
@PEDIAIMPROVE41
City produces one extra trade arrow in each square that
already produces one. ________________________________________
______________________________________________________________
___ The Avenue of the Dead runs the length of Teotihuacán. This
city, the site of the most urbanized civilization in Mesoamerica, 
was designed to be seen from the heavens. It once covered an area 
of 8 square miles and had a population of 100,000-120,000, making
it probably the biggest city of the world at that time. The 
significance of Teotihuacán is demonstrated by the fact that 500 
years after its fall the Aztecs worshipped at the ruined site. 

@;Lighthouse
@PEDIAIMPROVE42
No effect; just a symbol.  _____________________________
___________________________________________________________________
___ The Pyramid of Kukulcán in Chichén Itzá, also known as El 
Castillo, has nine terraces and a square temple on the top. On
this pyramid, when the sun's rays descend at the spring or autumn
equinox (March 20-21, and Sept 20-21, respectively), a serpentine 
shadow is easily observed --a homage to Kukulcán, the Mayan equivalent
of Quetzalcóatl, the feathered serpent, or mere chance?

@;Great Library

________________________________________________________________
___ The Castle of La Mota is situated in Medina del Campo, near 
Valladolid on top of a hill, from which it takes its name (mota 
meaning small hill in Spanish). This castle was the royal residence 
of the Catholic Monarchs Isabella and Ferdinand and later of their 
daughter Juana, mother of emperor Charles V (Charles I of Spain). 
  
@;Oracle

___________________________________________________________
___ Legend has it that Uxmal (meaning "three times built") was
erected by a dwarf boy with magical powers who, accomplishing three
seemingly impossible tasks, ended up by occupying the charge of city's
governor. Uxmal's landmark is the extraordinary Nun's Quadrangle
(Cuadrángulo de las Monjas), whose façades are repeatedly adorned
with masks of the rain god Chac.

@;Great Wall

___ In 1500 Juan de la Cosa drew a World Map that remains as
a milestone in map making because it is the oldest map in
History to depict the American continent. Considering that the
map was drawn only eight years after Columbus' voyage, its accuracy
still amazes.

__ Vasco Núñez de Balboa, convinced by local indians of the
existence of a land in which gold was as abundant as stones, organized
an expedition in 1513 to explore the isthmus of Panamá. Instead of
gold, he found an enormous extension of calmed water, which he
baptized as "El Mar Pacífico (the Peaceful Ocean Sea)" --The Pacific 
Ocean.

___ In 1526, an expedition commanded by Pánfilo de Narváez to explore
the upper coast of the Gulf of Mexico ended up in a complete disaster.
Among the four survivors there was Alvar Núñez Cabeza de Vaca, who, doing
a little bit of everything to survive among hostile natives, travelled
throughout North America, from Florida to California, in nine years
(1526-1535). His heroic voyage provided the Spanish with very useful
information for the future colonization of Texas, Arizona, Colorado,
California, Nevada and New Mexico. (Cabeza de Vaca means literally
Cow's Head, hence the icon).

__ On the planes of Nazca there are gigantic drawings of figures 
known and unknown to modern man. The drawings are so enormous that 
they can only be viewed from the air. These works of art, known as 
the Nazca Lines, were created more than 2,500 years ago, but no one 
knows why or what for. Some say the drawings are of an astrological 
nature, others that the Nazcans were trying to communicate with 
beings from outer space.

___ After the conquest of Toledo in 1085 by King Alfonso VI, the old
Visigothic capital replaced Córdoba as the biggest cultural center of
Western Europe. Raimundo, archbishop of Toledo established in the XII
century a School of Translators with the purpose of translating into 
Latin the scientific and philosophical treatises written in Arabic. The
School of Translators, like Toledo itself, was the scene of a fusion of
Christian, Arab, and Jewish scholars, working together to rescue 
writings by Plato, Aristotle, Ptolemy, Euclid, etc, from the 
oblivion they had fallen in Medieval Europe. The School of Translators
attracted students and scholars from all over the world and reached its
zenith in the XIII century under King Alfonso X the Wise.

@;J.S. Bach's Cathedral
@PEDIAIMPROVE54
Decreases unhappy citizens on same continent by 2 per city.  _______
______________________________________________________            
___ The mysterious Olmecs, whose hierarchical society was said to 
function on fear, have profoundly influenced Mesoamerica's subsequent
cultures --Zapotecs, Teotihuacans, Toltecs, Mixtecs... Olmec
means "people from the land of rubber". The Olmecs' greatest
achievement was their imposing carved monolithic basalt heads,
measuring as much as 10 feet. These noble heads, believed to be
portraits of Olmec rulers, all wear headgear resembling helmets,
probably protection from war and during ball games.

@;Isaac Newton's College

______________________________________________________            
__The Torre del Oro of Seville (Tower of Gold) owes its name to the
characteristic golden reflections produced by the glaze that coated
its twelve-sided exterior. It was built in the XIII century as a part
of the city walls, although it is physically separated from them. After
the Discovery of America, the Torre del Oro was utilized to store the 
silver and gold arriving from the colonies.

@;Adam Smith's Trading Co.
@PEDIAIMPROVE56
Pays the maintenance for all city improvements which
ordinarily cost 1 gold per turn. _______________________________
______________________________________________________________
___The Mochica or Moche civilization fluorished in what is today 
Northern Peru until the VII century AD, when it was absorbed
by tribes of Central and Southern Peru. The Mochica was once a highly 
hierarchical civilization whose treasures have not been unveiled until
recently. Only ten years ago, the tomb of a Mochica warrior chief, the
Lord of Sipán, was discovered by the Peruvian archeologist Walter Alva.
The magnitude of this discovery is so big that it has been compared 
with that of Tutankhamon's tomb in Egypt.

___ Christopher Columbus --Cristóbal Colón in Spanish--,
set out from Huelva with three caravels on August 3, 1492
to find a westward route to the fertile lands of Cipango 
(Japan) and Cathay (China), but he found a new continent
instead, America. On October 12, after a journey of 61
days, Columbus landed in the Bahamas and claimed the
territory for the Crown of Spain. He died without knowing
that the land he had found was indeed a new continent and 
not the East Indies.

___ Henry the Navigator (1394-1460), prince of Portugal, is noted as the
patron of navigation and exploration. Born in Oporto, he established an 
observatory and the first school for navigators in Europe at Sagres. 
Under his direction, many important expeditions were undertaken along 
the west coast of Africa.

@;Women's Suffrage
@PEDIAIMPROVE60
Decreases unhappiness caused by troops away from city by 1. __________
_______________________________________________________________________
___ In the first years after Columbus' voyages to the New World, there
was a concern that Spain and Portugal would have conflicting territorial
claims, so a treaty was proposed in which Spain would claim lands to the
west of a north-south trending meridian, and Portugal could claim lands
to the east. Meeting in the town of Tordesillas, Portugal and Spain
agreed to a line that would run through a point located 370 leagues west
of the Cape Verde Islands. The Treaty of Tordesillas was completed on 
June 7, 1494, and was later sanctioned by Pope Julius II in 1506.

___ Rapa Nui, the indigenous name of Easter Island, bears witness to a
unique cultural phenomenon. A society of Polynesian origin that settled
there in about 300 AD established a powerful, imaginative and original
tradition of monumental sculpture and architecture, free from any 
external influence. From the 10th to the 16th centuries this society 
built shrines and erected enormous stone figures, moai, which created 
an unrivalled cultural landscape and which today continue to fascinate
the entire world.

__ In 1512, Juan Ponce de León sailed from Hispaniola in search for
the island of Bimini, where the eternal youth springs were thought
to be located. After discovering the peninsula of Florida, Ponce de León's
ships encountered "a river inside the sea, stronger than the wind, that
drives the ships back, far far away" --the Gulf Stream.

example of the significance of astronomy for the Maya, as it was
built with the sole purpose of tracking celestial movements.

__ Yebel Musa, the Dead Woman, is one of the Pillars of Hercules (the 
other is Yebel al-Tarik --Gibraltar). Ceuta was occupied by the 
Portuguese in 1415. In 1580, Portugal and Spain united into one crown.
When in 1640 Portugal separated from Spain, the citizens of Ceuta chose
to remain loyal to Spain, thus breaking completely their links with 
Portugal. Ceuta was consequently granted the title of "always the noble
one, always the loyal one, always the most reliable one".

__  The first search for the mythical kingdom of El Dorado took the 
conquistador Gonzalo Pizarro (brother of the conqueror of Peru, 
Francisco Pizarro) and his lieutenant and cousin, Francisco de Orellana,
across the Andes in 1541. They failed to find any trace of the rich 
kingdom. Instead, Orellana discovered the Amazon --the river with 
the biggest volume flow in the world.
