Dorado

A lost city of gold in South America Not yet to be found  legend Historians never give up to find it

Origin

Musica tribe: Two migrations (1270 BC & 800 ~ 500 BC) - conquered Cundinamarca and Boyacá areas of Colombia. Legend in “El Carnero” by Juan Rodriguez Freyle  ritual for new king with gold dust & noble treasures

Take place before ascending the throne Lake Guatavita  naked ~ covered with gold dust ~ decorated with precious stones (a birthday cake?) Center of the lake ~ bathe + stones into lake  sacrifice to Musica’s god

Not a city The Gilded One  synonym of the lost city of gold + places get rich quickly

1545 ~ Lázaro Fonte + Hernán Perez de Quesada drained Lake Guatavita (sacred lake to Musica)  Gold alone the shore 1580 ~ Antonio de Sepúlveda again  gold found

Real city Huge desire to uncover it Legends divert  locations did so too ~ originated in Columbia  All areas in Latin America

 The Road to El Dorado (2000)
