Question

Cauê is a Ianomami boy. The Ianomami people live in the Amazon rain forest. Cauê is nineteen years old. Fifteen years ago, when he was a little boy, life was very different in his village.

There were many fish in the river and there were small animals in the jungle. Now the rivers are polluted. The Indians don’t like to eat the fish because they can get sick. And the jungle isn’t near the village now.

“ There were about nine malocas in my village. In each maloca there were three or four families”, says Cauê.

Maloca is the name of an Indian house.Many years ago, yhe Ianomami villages were round, because the malocas were in a big circle. In the middle of the circle there was a large maloca.It was the place for festivals and cerimonies.

Cauê says, “Many years ago, there were only Indians in the village. There were no white people. Nowadays white people come to the village. They come from the cities and from other countries. There are only three malocas now, so the villages are not round anymore.”
