I’ve Heard It Both Ways: The Maybe Missing, Maybe Made-Up City of the Caesars

I’ve Heard It Both Ways: The Maybe Missing, Maybe Made-Up City of the CaesarsAshley kicks off our Chilean triptych with the centuries-long search for the legendary Patagonian city, La Ciudad de Los Césares, or The City of the Caesars. The first references to this mysterious, treasure-filled city can be traced back to a 1526 expedition led by Sebastian Cabot. Like many stories passed mainly by word of mouth, the details of who built the city, who inhabits it, and what kinds of treasure it contains have varied widely over the intervening years, but there are still those who believe The City of the Caesars still hidden somewhere in the vast and sparsely-populated region of Patagonia. For desert, Ashley offers a selection of other “lost cities,” some rooted in fact and some in fiction.Find Kudzu Killers podcast on your favorite social media or streaming platform at https://www.kudzukillers.com/To stay on top of all the latest from Pineapple Pizza Podcast, be sure to check out our website at www.pineapplepizzapodcast.com where you will find links to merch, Patreon and a variety of ways to support the show, as well as detailed episode descriptions and regional specials.
