Demarcation Diaries
17 September 2001
Kontau (Team A) : Sometimes I wonder if the Deni will become one of the most

Paula, Samuel and Petros (Cuniua Team) : We had some comunication problems today with the radio and the
satphone, but it seems everything is solved, for now.

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.
