Mosetenes del Río

The Moseten people live in Bolivia, in the Amazon Bassin. Along the Quiquibey river, the Moseten culture seems to be rather well preserved. The native language, the music, the beliefs, the everyday objects, are still what they used to be in the past and it is all passed on to the younger generation.

However, the territory faces major threats such as the construction of a damn that would surely flood the banks of the Quiquibey and wash away the existing villages.
