Amazonian Dark Earths

Amazonian soils are almost universally thought of as extremely forbidding. However, it is clear that complex societies with large, sedentary populations were present for over a millennium before European contact. Associated with these are tracts of anomalously fertile, dark soils termed 'terra preta' or dark earths.
