There were so many theories about this lovely place. Hiram Bingham himself had a few. He believed it was the Lost City, as well as that it was a temple devoted to Sun Virgins. The site is surrounded with sacred landscape, and that's why some people believe the city was built to honor this sacred ground. Some scientists think it was made for royal retreat. Just to mention that the real Lost City is Espiritu Pampa.
