A true "South Polar Oddity": Inca City (2 - False Colors)

"Inca City" is the informal name given by Mariner 9 Scientists in 1972 to a set of intersecting, rectilinear ridges that are located among the layered materials of the South Polar Region of Mars. Their origin has never been understood; most investigators thought they might be sand dunes, either modern dunes or, more likely, dunes that were buried, hardened, then exhumed. Others considered them to be dikes formed by injection of molten rock (magma) or soft sediment into subsurface cracks that subsequently hardened and then were exposed at the surface by wind erosion.
