Other comments: Kanamarí or Canamarí uses a very limited numeral system. The older generation told me that their forefathers had a more extensive system, but nobody knows that any more - even the older folks don't. They told me that some counted different positions on the arm, but nobody can tell now anymore what would be the right word.
