Background Story
El Dorado is the Spanish word for "the golden one", a name given in 16th-century Spanish accounts to a ruler said to cover himself in gold dust before washing it off in a sacred lake. The name later came to refer to a lost city or kingdom of immense wealth, and European explorers searched for it across South America.
