This tepuy (pemon word for plateu mountain) is the highests of all these plateaus. It holds unique echosystems in the world, and a few species are only found on the top of this specific tepuy. It is one of the oldest geological formations on earth and it is very unlileky to ever have an erathquake in this region. On top it holds a common point that is the border between Brazil, Venezuela and Guyana (although most of Guyana's territory was originally Venezuelan).
