Ancient Journeys: A Vision of the New World is an album by German cross-cultural new age band Cusco.

Released in 2000, this album continues somewhat in the flavor of Apurimac III, but is dedicated to ancient journeys of adventure and discovery. The musical concepts reflect on ancient rhythms and melodies, and depict ancient kingdoms, sea voyages, conquests and land explorations that cross continents. While the music itself may be fairly predictable for the band, after a three-year absence between releases this album was quite successful.
