The full-flowing Amazon basin, located in South America, is home to a tropical forest rich in flora and fauna. Here live tribes that almost never came into contact with civilization.

The modern world has long been using digital technology, and in the Amazon basin has heard nothing about electricity and in his life has not tasted anything better than a fried banana.

.

The largest number of indigenous tribes of Indians live in the jungle near the border between Brazil and Peru. Since the colonization of these lands, the autochthonous inhabitants had to fight against the cruelty of the conquerors. People were enslaved, exterminated, expelled, and the land suitable for ploughing was taken away, leaving the tribes one-on-one with the wild jungle, where they had to hide from wild animals. More than 90% of Indians obeyed the conquerors, and now they live in Peruvian cities. The remnants of the Indians still live secluded in their native Amazonian forests.

The most numerous tribe - Ashaninka. Its representatives live on the river coast at least 1,000 people, although about 70% have moved to Peru. The next and approximately equal in number are the Madijah and Huni Qui tribes.

Each tribe has preserved its ancient traditions, some of which are related to housing, others to everyday life, others to fishing and hunting.

Ashaninka tribe's villagers live in hemispherical huts by their families, there are also separate huts for bachelors in the settlements. Huni Kui, like their ancestors hundreds of years ago, brew herbal drinks, pray and send all kinds of rituals. Here, until now, the highest power has a shaman, who is also engaged in znakharstvo.

These tribes try to isolate themselves from civilization, reserving the right to enjoy only the most necessary benefits. They appeal to the big world only for emergency medical care and protection, because, besides them, in the jungle live aggressive and completely non-contact tribes.

Local aborigines have resumed belligerent attacks on Ashaninka, Huni Kui, Madijah and others tribes because of the oppression of their interests as a result of authorized logging on the Brazilian-Peru border. That is why all Amazon settlements are on alert, and residents have to seek help from nongovernmental organizations that can influence the territorial claims of the non-contact Bravo tribe living in the jungles of Peru and Brazil.

Hostile neighbors and the new danger that the government is considering a dam project on the Ene River in Peru are causing constant inconvenience to the indigenous people. In the video you can see how the days of the natives from the Amazon coast are rambling. Everyone is engaged in his own business, everyone lives in harmony with nature and himself.
