Amazon Interactive Who lives in the Amazon?
Aborigines? That's a good guess, but it's not right. You could use the word "aborigine" to describe theindigenous people of the Amazon, since it has a similar meaning as "indigenous."Both refer to the original inhabitants of an area or country. But "Aborigine"usually refers specifically to the original inhabitants of Australia. Usingthe same word for other native peoples would be technically correct buta little confusing. Besides, the question was "what other people livein the Amazon now, besides the indigenous peoples?" Why don't you try again?
