Of course the Amazon was not unpopulated when the colonists
arrived. There are many Indian tribes that have lived in the
forest since the beginning of time. The Brazilian Government's
Indian Agency, knowing what contact with "civilization" was likely
to bring to the Indians, tried to protect them against the
invading road builders and colonists and the diseases they would
bring with them. Search parties were sent out in advance. Reserves
were set up. But it was to no avail. Colonists and loggers invaded
the reserves, and tragically many Indians succumbed.
