[edit] Discussion

vilcambamba is in ecuador not in peru, correct that (added by User:200.116.148.38)
Further to the above Vilcabamba IS in Peru, although it is on no maps becuase, as the article states, it is now a ruin and not inhabited. As such it may only appear as "Espiritu Pampa" (plain of ghosts) on maps. There is also a modern day settlement in Ecuador called Vilcabamba - it is not the same place. (added by User:81.168.58.234)
Vilcabamba IS inhabited, it's a valley, a town and a parrish near to Cusco. It's on the map, in province of "La Convencion". --Lanerossi 21:59, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
It is a small village. It has no other comunication than a walking road. The only way to reach it is by foot. (Despedes 04:01, 7 January 2007 (UTC))
According to the map on p. xxvi of the Folio Society reprint of Bingham's "Lost City of the Incas", and the discussion in the foreword, the existing village of Villcabamba was founded by the Spaniards, and is almost 50 miles to the east of the Inca ruins being discussed in the article. In other words there are two different Villcabambas in Cusco province, which may require disambiguation if anyone ever wants to write an article about the inhabited village. The existing geocoding for the ruins in the article of 10°28′41″S 76°26′51″W / -10.4781, -76.4475 is way off, being several provinces away from the ruins at Espiritu Pampa. My best estimate from the map, which shows the ruins as being slightly to the west of a right-angle bend in the Pampaconas River would be -13.031, -73.1622. Brgibbard 14:54, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Shadow Hearts: From the New World level
I'm not 100% sure that this is the Vilcabamba that is in the game, however the location on the games map seems to be in the Peru area. The map isn't charted though, and it seems pretty close to Ecuador, so my edit might belong in Vilcabamba, Ecuador. Just a heads up. DSMeatte 20:57, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
