Up there you see the Peruvian Amazon
Company, a joint stock company. . .
:36:06
. . .and there, the Borja brothers.
:36:09
What does that square mean?
:36:10
That's the rubber region of the
Ucayali, about 1 4 million trees.
:36:16
It's the only area still unclaimed.
:36:19
Because of the rapids
of the Pongo das Mortes. . .
:36:23
. . .you'd have to have wings
to fly into this area.
:36:26
What about up on the Pachitea?
:36:28
No rubber trees, maybe a few,
but not enough to make it worthwhile.
:36:35
The only thing you'll find there
are savage lndians.
:36:38
No gold, no rubber, no nothing.
:36:42
Only head hunters. . .
:36:48
The two rivers almost touch each other.
:36:50
What?
:36:53
How exact is this map?
ls there anything more precise?
:36:59
Oh, it's a pretty good map.
:37:03
In 1 896 a group of surveyors and
soldiers got to the Upper Pachitea. . .
:37:08
. . .but most of them were murdered.
:37:10
Then some missionaries got as far as
Saramiriza, their farthest settlement.
:37:15
From there on you'll find only
savage Jivaros and Campas.
:37:23
Two padres ended up
as shrunken heads.
:37:26
Have you ever seen a shrunken head?
:37:28
Yes. . . I mean. . .
:37:32
No. . .sort of. . .
:37:56
Have you made your choice?
:37:57
I can't decide -- I guess I'll take both.
