Ancient/Classical History/world history

QuestionI know this might be a bit on the outside of your expertise, but maybe you could point me in the right direction.
I've visited Peru several times and seen many of the ruins. This year I went to Greece and Egypt... WOW!
Is there a place online or a good book that compares the similarities between the early cultures of Peru and Egypt?
The more I see and learn, the more questions I have.
AnswerHello,
I’m sorry, but the early cultures of Peru and Egypt are not my field of expertise, as you say, and then I cannot help you as I'd like to do.
I think however that there is no reliable place online that compares the similarities between the early cultures of Peru and Egypt, perhaps apart from some sites I list below, though I cannot bet on them being trustworthy:

As for a good book on the same topic, maybe you could take a look at “Voyages of the Pyramid Builders: The True Origins of the Pyramids from Lost Egypt to Ancient America” by Robert M. Schoch & Robert Aquinas McNally

Hope this can be helpful to you.
Have a nice trip wherever you go.
