Percy Fawcett

A well-known archeologist and British explorer, Percy Fawcett became obsessed with what he called “The Lost City of Z,” an ancient city buried deep in the Amazon. In 1925, with his son and son’s best friend, Fawcett set out to find what he considered his El Dorado. Tragically, all three mysteriously vanished without a trace. Many later explorers tried to track down Fawcett but with no luck. In recent years, one explorer discovered a tribe in the jungle had kept an oral tradition of a white man meeting with them. They warned him not to go any further because of another dangerous tribe, but he ignored them. They believe he was attacked by this tribe.
