So you make several expeditions into the jungle of Peru - attacked by numerous swarms of insects (bees, ants, mosquitoes) - and this is what you end up with? A few childish barely detectable images in the rocks of the jungle?

so then he got sidetracked into the ET Alien hoax claims. Dang! Tragic.
“A mysterious square formation eight hundred meters apart, located at the top of a medium-altitude mountain, intrigues the French explorer and his entire team. Especially since the Matsiguengas of the region assure that this is the place where the famous “ruins of Pantiacolla” are hidden… in other words Paititi! A few hundred meters away, a mysterious ‘square lake’ and four twin lagoons are spotted. They seem to confirm the legend which affirms that Paititi would be precisely near such bodies of water. The Incas would have dumped quantities of precious objects there after the invasion of the empire by the Spaniards.”
In 2013, Jamin was accompanied by a group of indigenous Matsiguenas in search of the square lake, lagoons, and mysterious square mountain. They arrived 30 kilometers from the lakes, took some field notes, and decided to turn back. Most valuable were their studies of the terrain they’d have to cross to reach the lakes and the square mountain.
Then, in 2014, Jamin and his team set off into Magatoni with the intention of reaching the supposed city of Paititi atop the square mountain. Their excursion was challenging. Because the forest was too dense, they used rivers to navigate their way. They were stopped by indigenous Sabamantiari people before entering their territory. After rerouting, they hiked as far as they could before returning to Cusco. They didn’t reach the square mountain.

Looks like he's been shut down pretty much...
“Paititi, Sur les traces de l’Eldorado inca” (in two volumes, France, May 2025).
In the fall of 2010, he revealed to the Peruvian Ministry of Culture the existence of more than thirty archaeological sites previously unknown to modern archaeology, discovered by his team in the Lacco-Yavero, Chunchusmayo, Cusirini, and Yoyato valleys, in the northern department of Cusco.
His 2011 research campaign in the heart of the Megantoni National Sanctuary allowed him to gather new evidence on the existence and location of a major population center nearby.

Megantoni sits in the Cusco region, on the eastern Andean slope dropping into the Amazon, and it feels far more like raw jungle frontier than a classic “national park.” Trails are rough, access is by river and remote communities, and you’ll likely need a guide and permits, so entrance and transport costs stack up compared with places like Manu or Machu Picchu’s well-oiled circuits. The payoff is dense cloud forest, serious biodiversity, and almost zero crowds

In September 2019, the French explorer conducted an aerial reconnaissance over the probable area of Paititi. Three years later, satellite images confirmed the presence of significant ruins in the same location.
Finally, in 2025, Thierry Jamin and the Inkarri Institute team conducted a LiDAR operation in the highly probable area of the lost Inca city. The operation is currently underway.
