The German [[journalist]] [[Karl Brugger]] described the city in his book ''The Chronicle of Akakor'' (1976).

Tantunca Nara speaks about possible contact with [[Extraterrestrial life|extraterrestrials]] in the ancient past. He says these extraterrestrials are believed to have built this mysterious city. Two similar cities are mentioned in this book - [[Akanis]] and [[Akahim]]. Later [[Rüdiger Nehberg]] showed that Tatunca Nara was actually a German named Günther Hauck. Parts of the story from ''The Chronicle of Akakor'' were used in the movie ''[[Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull]]''. == References == *[http://www.bookfinder.com/author/karl-brugger/ Karl Brugger: Die Chronik von Akakor, Econ Publishers: Düsseldorf, Vienna, 1976] == Other websites== * [http://www.philipcoppens.com/akahim.html The legend of Akakor] * [http://www.freebsd.nfo.sk/esoteric/indiantea.htm Article about underground secrets of South America] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080816212140/http://www.freebsd.nfo.sk/esoteric/indiantea.htm |date=2008-08-16 }} {{geo-stub}} [[Category:Cities in South America]] [[Category:Fictional locations]]
