Synopsis
In the Jungle… “If we should not come out, I don’t want rescue parties to come in looking for us. It’s too risky. If with all my experience we can’t make it, there’s not much hope for others. That’s one reason I’m telling exactly where we’re going.” British explorer Colonel Percy Harrison Fawcett, May 29, 1925 The last written message to his wife… In the winter of 1930, I had finished my groundwork to become an archeologist. New discoveries in Egypt meant treasures were waiting to unearth. South America yielded very few artifacts, but I suspected the jungle hid most things from untrained eyes. We did not set out on a grand adventure to make names for ourselves. We had not gone in search of the famed and lost surveyor; we did not believe we’d find anything extraordinary. The professor wanted to experience the splendors of the South America and the rainforest one last time. I was privileged to join the expedition. The Amazonian jungle is an unforgiving and mysterious environment. We were not intrepid explorers, we were tourists, and the jungle was going to take more than it would ever give back. We were unprepared for what we eventually discovered, and the world would never know of our unearthing. The jungle keeps its secrets.
