Percy Harrison Fawcett

1867-1925

(Explorer, Adventurer)

 

The British Explorer Colonel Percy Harrison Fawcett does not belong in the history anymore but in legend. He spent 19 years of his life in the jungle of the Amazon, in the Bolivian, Peruvian and Brazilian wilderness searching to trace an ancient civilization, the remains of which are still hiding among the silent trees, the dirty rivers, the full of poison snakes swamps, and in the memory of wild cannibals. After all these years of heroic wanderings in the most unexplored regions of South America, the Darkest Continent, as he himself named it, he finally disappeared while he was walking towards a Great Vision, as if the virgin wild rain forest allowed him to explore its interior asking for exchange his own life. 

 

No mater what happened, Colonel Fawcett devoted his life because he was absolutely certain that deep inside the Amazon jungle, there was a tribe of white people with a more advanced civilization than our own. Perhaps, the most ancient civilization of mankind.

 

After Fawcett's disappearance, his youngest son Brian attempted many times to rescue his father from the Amazonian hell and in one of this efforts made a note written in a possible understandable language of the natives asking from them help in finding his father. With the use of an airplane he dropped thousands of pieces of this note over the territories where he thought his father and his youngest brother might have been lost.
