Theodore A. Morde (1911-1954) was an American adventurer and explorer, recognized for his controversial claim of discovering the 'Lost City of the Monkey God' in Honduras in 1940. His expedition yielded numerous artifacts, but he never disclosed the site's location or returned for further excavations. Morde transitioned to a career as a diplomat and news film producer. His legacy is marred by allegations of fabrication regarding his discoveries, as later investigations suggested he never found any ruins, culminating in his tragic suicide in 1954.
