The history of the origin of the wooden hull speaks about how people in the interior of the Amazonia make boats from a single tree trunk choosing the best wood to build one of the most used river transports in the colonial period of the Amazonia and still using in present time.
Written in general Amazonian language, the Nheengatu and in Portuguese and English, the story about the origin of the hull, the oldest transport in the Amazon region is told from the histories of indigenous students from São Gabriel da Cachoeira, Amazonas, Brazil.
This fascinating history about the origin of the hull will certainly show you a new conception of life in the Amazonia as well as the experiences of men who cross in their hulls (canoes) the Amazon region from North to South and from East to West with their beautiful canoe also made of wood. A journey of experiences within a wooden trunk that can last a lifetime.
