Archaeology handicrafts and science and technology sites to visit Jodensavanne

The native village of Redi Doti is a pleasant stopover where you can familiarize yourself with the Kali'na ethnic group and their handicrafts, particularly pottery. Redi Doti means "red earth", named after its ancient location, which you can also visit. The village is relatively young, with around 100 inhabitants. Their main source of income is hunting and fishing, while the women weave dresses and make cassava bread. From here, you can visit the village of Blakawatra and the Cassipora cemetery.

The Jewish settlement chose the Jodensavanne site for its 4 natural springs, one of which is considered to be medicinal: its curative virtues were already described by the first settlers as well as the natives living in the vicinity. For centuries, the spring is said to have provided a small but constant supply of healing water. This hilltop water has even been tested and found to combat constipation. Today, people still go there just to pick up a bottle of this miraculous water.
