La leyenda de El Dorado
y otros mitos del descubrimiento de América
Kupchik, Christian
Man always tends to invent utopias and to pursue chimeras, since ancient times territories such as Atlantis or the Fortunate Islands, had been visited by travelers who brought descriptions of incredible animals and infinite treasures, the same happened with regions such as India from which There were also numerous fantastic legends that were confirmed, in some cases, by men who were there, the troops of Alexander the Great for example. The legend of El Dorado and other myths of the discovery of America transfer us to that human impulse that invents territories and tirelessly searches for them, through a rigorous historical analysis of the expeditions that launched into the unknown in search of glory.
