An incredible cave painting of Inca art representing the face of Manco Inca II or Manco Inca Yupanqui was discovered by a group of Spanish and Peruvian archaeologists and speleologists in a steep rock located in the Sacred Valley in Cusco.The painting was preserved for four centuries and was discovered thanks to vertical projection techniques used by the archaeologists and speleologists from Ukupacha project of Jayme I de Castellon University and Incapintay project.
Manco Inca II or Manco Inca Yupanqui is one of the last monarchs of Tahuantinsuyo empire, son of Huayna Capac emperor.
Salvador Guinot from Ukupacha project, said that the mural with Manco Inca face is located in the steep rock of the Pinkuylluna sacred mountain.
