타나루 영토는 광대한 소 목장 안에 있는 작은 숲 섬에 있다. 그런데 이 곳은 브라질에서 토지 분쟁이 가장 심각한 곳들 중 한 곳이다.

소 목장주들이 토지를 강탈하고 돈벌기 위해서 원주민들을 집단 학살해버렸다.
집단 학살이 발생한 후, 이 '구덩이 남자'는 외부와의 어떤 접촉도 끊어버렸다.
타나루 원주민 영토 8천 헥타르는 브라질 "토지 보호법"에 따라 공적으로 보호하고 있는 7개 영토들 중에 한 곳이다.
브라질 대통령 '볼소나로'와 그의 정치적 동맹자들은 이 원주민 영토 보호법을 폐지하려고 전력을 쏟아오고 있다.

An Indigenous man known as “The Man of the Hole” has died in Brazil. He was the last member of his tribe, and the only inhabitant of Tanaru Indigenous Territory in Rondonia state, in the western Brazilian Amazon.
The rest of his people had been massacred in a series of attacks from the 1970s onwards, but little was known about his people as he resisted attempts to contact him. Known to outsiders as The Man of the Hole for his habit of constructing deep holes, some with sharpened stakes in them, he was filmed by a government team in 2018 during a chance encounter.
Tanaru territory stands as a small island of forest in a sea of vast cattle ranches, in one of the most violent regions in Brazil. Survival, together with organizations inside Brazil, campaigned for many years for his land to be protected.

Fiona Watson, Survival’s Research and Advocacy Director, visited the territory in 2004 with a government monitoring team, and wrote an account of the visit.
She said today: “No outsider knew this man’s name, or even very much about his tribe – and with his death the genocide of his people is complete. For this was indeed a genocide – the deliberate wiping out of an entire people by cattle ranchers hungry for land and wealth.
“He symbolized both the appalling violence and cruelty inflicted on Indigenous peoples worldwide in the name of colonization and profit, but also their resistance. We can only imagine what horrors he had witnessed in his life, and the loneliness of his existence after the rest of his tribe were killed, but he determinedly resisted all attempts at contact, and made clear he just wanted to be left alone.
“If President Bolsonaro and his agribusiness allies get their way, this story will be repeated over and over again until all the country’s Indigenous peoples are wiped out. The Indigenous movement in Brazil, and Survival, will do everything possible to ensure that doesn’t happen.”

OPI, the Observatory for the Human Rights of Uncontacted and recently-contacted Peoples, has called for the Tanaru reserve to be permanently protected as a memorial to Indigenous genocide. Survival backs that call.
Fiona Watson is available for interview. Survival has photos and videos available.
Note to Editors:
The 8,000 hectare Tanaru Indigenous Territory is one of seven territories in Brazil protected by Land Protection Orders. President Bolsonaro and his allies have long campaigned to abolish these protections.

The death of the Indigenous man, who lived entirely alone, means his people have been completely wiped out.
