Dalmo Vieira Filho, architect, cultural heritage researcher, and former director of IPHAN's Department of Material Heritage, argues that Brazil holds the world's richest diversity of traditional boat-building heritage — and that it is disappearing through bureaucratic neglect, motorization, and fiberglass replacement.▶ 9:50 The interview, conducted by Adriano Plotzky, covers the full range of Brazil's traditional vessel types: jangadas (including the now-extinct piúba-wood jangada of Ceará), canoas bordadas (sewn-plank canoes once kept at Posto 6 in Copacabana, reportedly sawed apart by a municipal agency), baleiras of Santa Catarina, and working craft of the Rio São Francisco, Lagoa dos Patos, and Camocim.▶ 0:39 Dalmo explains the jangada's mast as a technically sophisticated tapered splice of woods of varying flexibility — a design traceable to Egyptian depictions 4,000 years old and still found on the Red Sea.▶ 7:40 He traces the nautical term "alefris" (the rabbet line where planking meets the keel) to Phoenician origins.▶ 8:04 He argues that fiberglass is not an evolution of wooden boatbuilding but a regression, and that motorization eliminated the accumulated skill base that traditional construction required.▶ 9:50 Bureaucratic conflicts between environmental law and cultural-heritage protection blocked attempts to restore piúba-wood jangada construction in Ceará.▶ 30:41 Dalmo calls for a national program of public access to water, UNESCO cultural-landscape designation for maritime heritage zones, and pragmatic case-by-case negotiation between environmental and heritage agencies.▶ 20:54
