The Pirahã People
Description
Deep in the Amazon rainforest lives a small society that has challenged some of our most basic assumptions about language, numbers, time, memory, and even how human beings organize their lives.
For decades, researchers studying them have found features so unusual that they have sparked major debates in linguistics and anthropology.
