Wooden houses in the indiana village near Iquitos, Loreto, Peru, South America. The department of Loreto, the largest in Peru, was inhabited since ancient times by nomadic and semi-nomadic tribes. The evangelization of the Jungle by the Jesuits and Franciscans, in the 18th century, gave rise to the towns of Borja, Yerberos and La Laguna. In 1740, the Jesuit José Bahamonde founded the hamlets Santa Bárbara de Nanay and Santa María de Iquitos, on the Mazan River. All the populations joined together and migrated to the high banks between the Amazon, Nanay and Itaya rivers. According to tradition, Iquitos was founded in 1757 by the Jesuits with the name of San Pablo de los Napeanos, being the first river port on the Amazon River.
