Abstract
- Orange, blue, and white cord ; 34'' long; The Yanomany Indians are nomads who move several times a year to unfamiliar territories. They used hammock instead of beds to give more mobility. This influenced the Brazilian culture and a large portion of the Northern Brazilian population uses hammocks as beds even today.
