In 1968, a strange man emerged from the Amazon rainforest and into the city of Manaus, Brazil. His name, he said, was Tatunca Nara and he was the chief of a tribe called Ugha Mongulala. He claimed that his tribe resided in an underground city called Akakor. No one had ever heard of this tribe, nor this city but despite that, as time went, people all across the globe become enthralled by his fantastical tale and wanted to see the mysterious city for themselves - often leading to disastrous conclusions.
This is the story of the lost city of Akakor.
