Toototobi River is a river in the Amazon Rainforest of Amazonas, Brazil. It is a tributary of the upper Rio Demini near the headwaters of the Orinoco. The river flows through the territory of Kopenawa near the border of Venezuela. The so-called "Toototobi Yanomami ''índios''" take their name from this river. Davi Kopenawa Yanomami, a shaman and Portuguese-speaking spokesperson of that tribal group, was born close to it. The area may be a starting point for the epidemics of measles and other diseases which decimated the local peoples starting in the 1970s. ==References== *() "Engagement of anthropologists in public dialogue with members of study communities", University of Arizona *() Report of the Medical Team of the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro on Accusations Contained in Patrick Tierney's ''Darkness in El Dorado'' *() When Did the Measles Epidemic Begin among the Yanomami? 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Toototobi River」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
