Abstract
When looking at the Amazon Archaeology clearly perceives two images created from the interpretations of the works of two archeologists, Betty J. Meggers and Anna C. Roosevelt, required reading in understanding the past Amazon. The first, like a painting of the Green Hell, the second as the return to the search for Eldorado. Map out the details of these images is to understand what the purpose of constructing and ratify certain labels, and which power and strength that they acquire over time.
