Mosqueiro
Mosqueiro is an island near the south bank of the Pará River in the Brazilian state of Pará, roughly north of downtown Belém. The north and west of the island comprise an administrative district of the city of Belém. The island has of beaches with freshwater tides, which draw vacationers primarily in the dry season.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 website = Facebook )〕 The largest settlement on the island is the town of Vila (often referred to simply as Mosqueiro) along the southwestern shore. ==Origin of the name== Scholars have attributed the name ''Mosqueiro'' to a corruption of the native Tupinambá word ''moqueio'', which referred to the local practice of smoking meat and fish. In the early period of Portuguese colonization, the Tupinambá supplied smoked meat and fish to the city of Belém. The Portuguese, unfamiliar with the term ''moqueio'', called the island ''Mosqueiro'', which was the name of several places on the Iberian Peninsula. In Portuguese, the word ''mosqueiro'' means "flypaper".
