Demarcation Diaries

17 September 2001

We've got a Deni Indian, Samunavi, joining us today. Petros and Ademar went early this morning with the boadeira to pick him up from Cidade Zina. After some negotiation with the wife, they convinced him to come with us.

They also found the two "fugitive" ones, Cuama and Cutuvi, at the river side. They were still one day walking from the village. They left us two days ago: big mistake.

Anyway, they found them and gave them a ride to the town. Everybody made fun of them when they saw them giving up and coming back. They both were laughing as well. The Deni make fun out of everything...

We had some comunication problems today with the radio and the satphone, but it seems everything is solved, for now.

Petros and Zigirivi are trying to teach each other Greek and Deni.
