Bogota, the capital of Colombia, has a famous gold museum, which is the largest museum of gold products in the world, and has a large collection of handicraft treasures that survived the crazy plunder of European colonists. The most striking thing in this museum is a pure gold sculpture named "Mu Iscar's canoe". This exquisite gold product comes from the legendary "Huang Jincheng". Some people say that "Huang Jincheng" refers to the ancient tribe Mu Iscar (or Kibucha), while others say that "Huang Jincheng" is the Mano City in the Amazon jungle. Spanish historian Francisco lopez once described Mano City as follows: "Mano City is located on an island in a huge saltwater lake. The walls and roofs of buildings are made of gold. The kitchen and dining room are displaying golden tableware, and even the trunk is wrapped in gold and silver wire. The whole city is resplendent and magnificent, reflected in the lake. In the center of the island, there is a temple dedicated to the sun god, in which stands a huge golden statue. The statue of the king was covered with gold powder. The city's gold products are nearly 100 tons. " /kloc-At the beginning of the 6th century, the Spanish overthrew the powerful Inca Empire and plundered all the gold and precious stones. When Spanish commander Pizarro heard that all the gold of the Inca Empire was shipped from Mano City, he was in high spirits and heard that there were mountains of gold and silver treasures there. He immediately organized an expedition to go deep into the Amazon jungle to find the "Huang Jincheng" with a lot of gold and silver treasures. However, in the face of dense forests, explorers are like headless flies and can't find their way. Coupled with the harsh environment and the threat of ferocious animals and plants such as piranhas, vampire bats and sun flowers, many explorers never came back, and "Huang Jincheng" could only become a distant dream of Pizarro. Subsequently, the Spanish, Portuguese, British, Dutch and Germans got wind of Huang Jincheng, and everyone wanted to rob them of their money, so they flocked to the Amazon jungle. It is said that a Spaniard named Cesda led about 765,438+06 explorers to Huang Jincheng. After paying a heavy price of 550 lives, he finally found Huang Jincheng and found an emerald worth $3 million. However, this is only a small part of Huang Jincheng's priceless treasure. When Pizarro learned about it, he led a great army to look for "Huang Jincheng" according to the clues provided by Cesada, but only found an empty city with rough walls, without a lot of gold and legendary gorgeous jewels. Huang Jincheng is gone! Does Huang Jincheng really exist? If it ever existed, how did it disappear? For centuries, the word "Huang Jincheng" has attracted the attention of explorers and archaeologists all over the world like a magnetic magnet. Many people devote themselves to exploring this mysterious place. However, in this virgin forest of vast expanse, every step forward means fear and death. There are wild animals and poisonous snakes, there are savage cannibal tribes, and they are in danger of getting lost. One expedition after another was disappointed, or their whereabouts were unknown. No one can find this magnificent "Huang Jincheng" again. It disappeared into the jungle like smoke. But people's speculation about it has not stopped. There are two theories about how the "Huang Jincheng" treasure disappeared. One is that when the Spanish army was ready to invade Huang Jincheng, the Muskas in Huang Jincheng had quietly appeared on the bank of Lake Titicaca. The legend of Lake Titicaca is the place where the son of Sun God and Moon God worshipped by Incas came to create the Inca Empire. Therefore, Mu Iscar people think that instead of letting the nearly 100 tons of gold products be looted by the Spanish army, it is better to throw all these treasures into Lake Titicaca and let them return to the arms of their gods. That's why Pizarro saw the empty city. Pizarro didn't get any treasure. In a rage, he ordered his soldiers to destroy all the buildings in Huang Jincheng, and then burned the empty city into ruins with fire. With the passage of time, the "Huang Jincheng", which was in ruins, finally disappeared from the earth, and there was no trace of its former glory. The beautiful Lake Titicaca still lurks in the Amazon jungle, and all the treasures of "Huang Jincheng" are quietly hidden at the bottom of the lake under the protection of Inca gods. Another way of saying this is that Kesada slaughtered a large number of Mu Iscar people in the city in order to keep all the treasures of "Huang Jincheng" for himself, and then buried the looted treasures in an unknown place deep in the Amazon jungle, leaving a treasure map. He is going to hide from Pizarro and wait quietly for the opportunity to take these treasures away. However, Cesada never imagined that three months later, death would befall the Spanish army in an aggressive war. All his men were also killed in this battle. Since then, no one knows the whereabouts of Huang Jincheng's treasure. 19 1 1 year, the British explorer Walker claimed to have discovered Lake Titicaca in the Amazon jungle, and pointed out that Lake Titicaca was Lake Gua Davida in Colombia. Walker led 50 employees to dig a tunnel near Lake Gua Davida. It took three weeks to completely drain the lake and prepare to dig it, but within two days, the sun soon turned the thick mud into a hard mud board. Helpless Walker had to transport drilling equipment from England to prepare for excavation, but at this time the lake was refilled with water. This costly salvage finally failed, and Walker lost nearly 500,000 pounds for it. But this did not defeat the fighting spirit of British explorer Walker at all. 19 13, Walker led 12 employees to Gua Davida Lake again, and started digging directly from the bottom of the shallow lake with diving equipment. The operation finally succeeded. They unearthed hundreds of gold products: gold cups, bowls, jars and gold wares of different sizes. Walker's actions and achievements have attracted the attention of the Colombian government. They immediately stopped Walker's action and sent a large number of troops to protect Lake Gua Davida. Since then, no one has been able to get close to this treasure. However, when the archaeological experts and diving teams designated by the Colombian government made a deep excavation of Gua Davida Lake, only 300 gold items were obtained, which was far from the legendary "Huang Jincheng" treasure. This makes experts wonder: Where did most of Huang Jincheng's treasures go? Is it true that it was plundered by Cesada, Spain, and buried in the unknown depths of the Amazon jungle? Some historical experts analyzed that when Mu Iscar learned that the Spanish army was going to attack Huang Jincheng, they could not take all the nearly 100 tons of gold products, but only part of them and hid them at the bottom of GuaDavida Lake. But the arrival of Spanish troops was much earlier than expected by Mu Iscar people, so most of the gold was taken away by Quesada. But it is not clear whether these treasures are buried deep in the Amazon forest or smuggled away by Caesar. However, some experts suspect that the treasure of "Huang Jincheng" is not as much as described in rumors, and the so-called nearly100t gold products are just rumors rather than facts. However, there are still countless explorers and archaeologists who set foot on the land of South America and came to the former Inca Empire to find the truth of the mystery of the disappearance of the treasure of Huang Jincheng.
