History
- The river basin and its extended watershed is the traditional territory of the Malys. when the tribes began forming a more permanent home in the area the river formed a common cultural and geographic anchor for the various clans. To date it serves as a provider of food, and as a key transport corridor into the interior of the Plains of Tekara.
