3. “…the ‘garden urbanism’ of the Upano Valley provides further proof that Amazonia is not the pristine forest once depicted.” There goes another green narrative that has been used to justify keeping humanity from the land. The advanced level of knowledge lost cannot be blamed on Columbus either. I doubt that Canada’s institutions would have funded that kind of research as they would be trying to protect those narratives from debunking.

   Apparently.. Cocaine was a common upper class treat in ancient Egypt.. It would stand to reason that trade from South America might have been responsible.. I will go one further.. You know the little purses that are everywhere in ancient statues and carvings.. They were full of cocaine..
