The Pau Brasil is the tree that was used as red dye for fabrics. It is the tree that gave Brazil its name. The red wood is very heavy and solid and doesn't dote and it was used as the first money. The Indians collected it and exchanged for jewelry, fabrics, leather and other things. The wood is still considered as one of the best materials for fabrication of bows and batons.
