After the death of Inca ruler Atahualpa in 1532 during a civil war between brothers, Spanish conquistador Francisco Pizarro took advantage and captured Atahualpa, who promised to fill rooms with gold and silver for his release. Though Atahualpa filled the rooms as promised, Pizarro had him executed anyway and began plundering the Inca Empire of its riches. Facing defeat, the Incan army is believed to have taken treasure and retreated into secret jungle cities, including the legendary hidden city of Pàititi, taking tons of gold and artifacts to unknown destinations deep in the Amazon rainforest.
