The Amazon rainforest stretches for millions of kilometers, hiding ancient tribes, animals and maybe something else. What if under this mysterious canopy lies an advanced civilization? How did we miss something so huge? Is the rainforest just an overgrown garden? Why didn't these people fight off the European conquest? What's the story behind the El Dorado myth? Did Francisco de Orellana discover any clues?
