The new discovering behind the search for El Dorado the golden city
William Prescott
In 1541: Gonzalo Pizarro, left the high Andean city of Quito at the head of an expedition of 200 to 280 Spanish soldiers (accounts differ),
2000 pigs and 4000 highland Indians. Accompanying the troops as chaplain was Gaspar de Carvajal and Orellana second-in-command...
The lake of gold:
... At the time the conquistador society was abuzz with stories of El Dorado, a native king said to possess so much gold
that in an annual ritual he painted his body with gold dust and then rinsed off the brilliant coating in a special lake. After centuries of these baths,
gold carpeted the lake floor.
A lake of gold! To twenty first century ears the story sounds preposterous, but it did not to Gonzalo Pizarro,
who had already helped seize an empire laden with jewels and precious metals. When he decided to search for El Dorado, Francisco encouraged
him-he practically shoved Gonzalo out the door.
What did they find?:
Once the journey was enterprised to the jungle searching for El Dorado, treasures of the Incas, a golden city, hungry for wealthes navigated and got
into the heart of amazon forest ,many of them perished, they never got El Dorado, but a region with many other rich natural resources...
....When Orellana went down the river in search of gold, descending from the Andes (in 1541), the river was still called Rio Grande, Mar Dulce or
Rio de Canela (Cinnamon river), because of the great trees of cinnamon located there.
The story of the fierce ambush launched by the icamiabas, that nearly destroyed the Spanish expedition, was narrated to the king,
Charles I, who, inspired by the Greek legend of the Amazons, named the river the Amazon.
