Miguel Alexiades, a highly accomplished anthropologist working in the Peruvian selva, describes his work with the Ese Eja people on the river straddling the border between Peru and Bolivia in one of the most bio-diverse regions on earth. He describes the unique and intimate relationship that the Ese Eja have to their ancestral homelands, their deep knowledge of their forests and rivers, and their own long and complex history, and the ecological footprints it has left in the forest.
