While in Colombia, Lost Kingdoms of South America contracted production services with Screen Colombia
The BBC documentary series Lost Kingdoms of South America includes four episodes exploring the legacy of indigenous communities in Colombia, Bolivia and Peru, trekking to temples hidden in the dense jungle, mountaintops presided over by darkened citadels, gloomy underground tombs and exquisite sculptures of gods and forgotten kings. The secrets of these South American kingdoms are among the oldest in the world and have only just begun to be discovered. The kingdoms flourished hundreds, sometimes thousands of years before the arrival of the Incas and the Spanish conquistadors. Many of them have been almost completely forgotten. Presented by British archaeologist Jago Cooper, the episode filmed in Colombia travels through mountains and jungles in search of the truth about the Legend of El Dorado.

Filming our one hour documentary in Colombia for the BBC's new archaeology series "Lost Kingdoms of South America" was an absolute pleasure. Despite an incredibly tight and demanding schedule Screen Colombia ensured that everything went to plan and pulled out all the stops to introduce us to some incredible people and some fantastic locations. The help and access given to us by so many organizations - the Kogi communities of the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, the Museo del Oro, the Colombian Army and the many universities, academics and individuals along the way helped to make this a highly successful programme.

Martin Kemp, Director, Lost Kingdoms of South America
