The valley has always been mystical. When the Tupi Indians inhabited the city, they considered the valley to be jinxed. The river that run in the valley was called Anhangabaú, or Devil's Curse. The indians believed that those who drank the water became sick, because to them it was dirty water; water of the devil.
