The first person ever claimed to have found "White City" La Ciudad Blanca is the American explorer Theodore Morde . It was July 12, 1940, when Mr. Morde returned from a trip to Central America's darkest forests with an interesting story about what he found there.

Mr. Morde, a real Indiana Jones and later an American wartime spy, was hired by the founder of New York's prestigious American Indian Museum to search for the legendary "White City". the place that was rumored to be submerged in gold and by a mysterious but great civilization is as much as the civilizations of the Aztecs and Mayans.

Explorers hunted La Ciudad Blanca for centuries, since Spanish invader Hernando Cortes occupied Central America in the early 16th century and heard rumors about its wealth. However, the legendary city remained hidden for hundreds of years, until Mr. Morde insisted on finding it in the Mosquitia tropical rainforest, an area of ​​more than 82,879.6km2 of wilderness. Honduras and Nicaragua.

Mr. Morde described how he and his partner Lawrence Brown, with only a pistol and a machete, took four months to make their way through the forest " almost inaccessible ", how swamps, rivers and mountains, before reaching a hidden valley containing the remains of a walled city, built of white stone.

The native Indian there told him that a long-time tribe of ancient Mayans who had long since disappeared worshiped a strange monkey god . This giant statue of the monkey god is still buried under the vegetation for centuries.

The mysterious people had bloody sacrifices for their monkey gods, then ate the victims according to a ritual of cannibalism . Morde said, during his brief trip, he also witnessed a frightening ritual in which indigenous people executed and ate monkeys at the relics of " White City ".

And there is another legend, that monkey gods have created many descendants, a half-human race, and half-monkeys nicknamed " hairy people " . Local people believe that monkeys from the deep forest have long ago stole virgins in their village to breed a hybrid and the " White City " has been protected by curse.

In order to prove his amazing claims, Morde, then 29 years old and recently circled the world 5 times, brought thousands of American artifacts, such as stone utensils and faces. Tiny monkey-shaped mask. He never revealed the exact location of the ruined city because he feared it would be looted before he could return.

However, Mr. Morde never returned and mysteriously died in 1954, bringing down a secret grave of the " White City " . Some fanatics said Mr Morde had lost his life as a warning to the indigenous people about the spiritual curse when breaking the forbidden city.

Several generations of adventurers rushed into the deep forest to search for the city but failed, Experts even declared Morde's discovery as a hoax to uphold themselves.

However, skeptics may now have to withdraw their accusations. A group of American and Honduran archaeologists have just returned from La Mosquitia and also announced that they have found what remains of what is believed to be the city of monkey gods as Morde described, in a valley of tropical rainforest. Crater shaped, surrounded by steep mountains.

According to National Geographic magazine, which accompanies the expedition, the archeology team conducted surveys and maps " large squares, fortifications, mounds and a terracotta pyramid belonging to a culture developed 1,000 years ago and then disappeared ".

The team also discovered an intact, intact collection of stone carvings since the city was abandoned.

Archaeologist Christopher Fisher of the University of Colorado, a team member, believes that the carvings found at the base of the pyramid can be used to donate to the monkey god. Fisher and his colleagues first discovered traces of the ruins nearly three years ago, in an aerial survey, using a high-tech scanner, able to see through forest canopy. by laser light.

The results revealed, the ruins stretching over 1.6km along a river through the valley. This remote, dangerous area was on a key cocaine smuggling route so scientists arrived there by helicopter, accompanied by Honduran task forces and former air force members. British mission.

Wild beasts often roam through the research camp of the research team and have apparently never encountered the previous humans.

Without excavation, the experts also found 52 artifacts lying on the ground, including stone ceremonial seats and finely carved vases decorated with solid, vulture. nickel and animals.

The most interesting thing in the antiquities was a stone head with evil fangs, half-human, half-animal . Fisher believes this is not a " werewolf " but a " jaguar " representing a magician in a state of transformation.

According to scientists, the ancient culture created the city so little known that there is still no proper name, although Mr. Morde once called it the Chorotegan people.
