C., andthe oldest remains of pottery found in the Ucayali region and date from 2000 BC. C. However, the lack of archaeological remains, in part by the rapid disintegration of the waste in the climate oftropical rainforest and the lifestyle of these cultures, generally semi-nomadic, has hampered the chronological study of the cultures of the Amazon.

The importance of the Amazon lies in four main points.
• Regulate the course of the rivers that cross it, to retain some water from rain and go releasing it slowly.
•The thick vegetation cover protects the soil from erosion.
• Regulates and regional climate warming.
• It is a huge lung provides oxygen.
