Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
This text analyzes, from a naval perspective, the chronicles of Gaspar de Carvajal (1542) and Cristóbal de Acuña (1637-1638) to investigate the construction and use of canoes in the Amazon basin in the 16th and 17th centuries. This research is part of a broad panorama of anthropological, archaeological, and historical studies of registration and analysis of traditional vessels in Colombia. A historic vision is proposed, identified as one of the great gaps within the academic literature. Additionally, the challenges and methodological obstacles for the study of nautical construction in the “colonial era” are discussed to pave the way for a detailed analysis of the texts of Carvajal and Acuña that reveal the uses and processes of canoe construction in this region.
