Photographer Ricardo Stuckert came across an unusual sight while flying over the Amazon in Brazil. He discovered an Amazonian tribe that had no contact with the outside world and until now no one knew of their existence. Who would have thought that in the 21st century we would ever get an indigenous insight into the Neolithic way of life when spears, arrows and bows ruled! According to Survival International, over 100 intact tribes still live in the world today.
From Brazil amazing scenes are coming. In a remote area Amazons in the province Acre there is a photographer near the border with Peru Ricardo Stuckert accidentally discovered an Indian tribe that lived until now in complete isolation and in the manner of our ancestors 20 thousand years ago.
