- Summary:
- The Brazilian Amazon is home to the largest number of isolated indigenous peoples in the world. Close to the 10th Parallel south, on the border with Peru, the frontiersman José Carlos Meirelles founded the Frente de Proteção Etnoambiental do Rio Envira. Without making contact, his team set up land limits so that the Natives could live in freedom in the rainforest, protecting the environment. For 21 days they went up the Envira River, identified campsite remains and recorded meetings among Meirelles, anthropologist Txai Terri de Aquino, and the riverside populations. These meetings discussed possible solutions for a peaceful coexistence, after a number of conflicts and thefts involving the "wild" natives, with some casualities, brought instability to the region.
