The Lost City of Z is the name given by Col. Percy Harrison Fawcett, a British surveyor, to an indigenous city that he believed had existed in the jungle of the Mato Grosso state of Brazil. Based on early histories of South America and his own explorations of the Amazon River region, Fawcett theorized that a complex civilization once existed there, and that isolated ruins may have survived[1].
History[]
Percy Harrison Fawcett, his son Jack Fawcett and his son's friend Raleigh Rimmel went to Amazon to find the fables lost city. They traveled deep into the jungle, and only Jack Fawcett survived the journey, as he found himself in Paititi which he believed to be the Lost City of Z[2].
