Traditional fishing dam by the Enawenê-Nawê people, built for the Yãkwa, the most extensive Indigenous ritual cycle in the Amazon, registered as a national heritage by the Ministry of Culture. Over the last few years, due to the construction of nine small hydroelectric dams on the Juruena River, Mato Grosso, the fish is disappearing, crippling the ritual.
