Demarcation Diaries
6 October 2001
Steve (Team B) : The government interest in the Deni's work turned into negotiations that are still underway. Some promises have been made from their side and in return
it has been decided that we all suspend our actions and withdraw the teams from the jungle. It is looking rather good but it is too early to celebrate. more
Bryan (Team A) : After getting used to the forest and preparing myself to go back in with another team, we received some very welcome news from the Brazilian government. more
Note: Volunteers and the Deni work in three different teams. Team C (Cuniuã Team) works by boat following the Coxodoã, Cuniuã and Canaçã rivers, the natural boundary of the Deni territory along the eastern perimeter. Teams A and B started at the north west tip, working away from each other, assisting the Deni in cutting a 1.5 meter path through the jungle and erecting signs identifying the Deni territory.
