Episode The Curse of El Dorado | 9
In the decades following Slumach’s execution, we see people injured–sometimes fatally–while going into the region looking for a gold mine without much proof of its existence. Gold represented wealth and power, freedom from hunger and oppression, a source of abundance.
People have killed and died for gold, crossed oceans for gold. Its lustre and scarcity easily made it the stuff of legend. In this episode, we’re on the search for El Dorado and while we don’t have a treasure map, we have the Jackson Letter, which may hold the key to finding Slumach’s lost mine and his cursed gold.
