Und sozusagen zur Einstimmung auf die (oder Ergänzung zur) NDR-Doku über #TatuncaNara "... und die Toten im Dschungel" werfen Moderator Felix Gebhardt und Autorin Dina Dada hier im ARD- #CrimeTime Podcast auch noch einen Blick hinter die Dschungel-Kulissen:

Wer der so skurrilen wie dramatischen Geschichte hinter dem (vermeintlichen) #TatuncaNara Mythos und dessen Enttarnung noch ein wenig weiter nachgraben möchte, sei der nun in der #ARD Mediathek verfügbare #NDR Dokudreiteler zum Thema sehr empfohlen:

Page from Rüdiger Nehberg's book about Tatunca Nara, showing childhood and teenage photos of Günther Hans Hauck alias Tatunca Nara.
The self-proclaimed "Indian" chief #TatuncaNara was ... a German citizen: #HansGüntherHauck, born in 1941 in Coburg, who had been "disappeared" in the 1960s (apparently due to some ... financial difficulties).
While #Brugger somehow seemed convinced by the #Akakor story (at least enough to find a publisher for it), it had one big flaw ...
There was only one single source for this fantastic tale: #TatuncaNara. And of course, if a story sounds to good to be true - it usually is.
Page from Brugger's "Chronicle of Akakor" showing an illustration of "hieroglyphs" allegedly from Akakor, including the example sentence (in German): "Wir-rechnen-mit-dem-Mond."
#TatuncaNara spun a really colourful story (and history) of this powerful ancient empire, not just one #LostCity, no, but several of those (mandatory treasure included).
Sounds more like a dime novel you say? Well, you’re probably right …
Page from Brugger's "Chronicle of Akakor" book showing an illustration depicting underground structures of the ancient "lost city".
Ah, #Akakor - the alleged ancient underground city hidden deep inside the jungle somewhere between #Brazil, #Bolivia, and #Peru which, according #TatuncaNara 's story, has it all: lost pyramids, occult wisdom, and divine (a.k.a. 🙌 #AncientAliens 🙌) technology …

The whole things starts with a mysterious "Indian" which all of a sudden appeared in #Brazil from the depths of the jungle in the summer of 1972 - introducing himself as some #TatuncaNara ("Big Water Snake"), chieftain of the #UghaMongulala (yes, you read this correct 🤷♂️) tribe.

Last chapt. on esoteric follow-up to Fawcett's story reminds of self-styled chieftain #TatuncaNara & his 'lost city' of #Akakor. @DavidGrann
