Abora is the name of the supreme being of the religion of the Guanches on the island of La Palma. In Guanche mythology of the island of Tenerife, the supreme god was called Achamán.Abora was a Bolivian-made reed boat, designed in 2002, to travel more than between Egypt, Lebanon and Cyprus. This was an attempt to prove a theory that there were no boundaries to the travels of ancient sailors, defying modern estimations of limited exploration by prehistoric man. The idea was inspired by Norwegian explorer Thor Heyerdahl, who sailed from South America to Polynesia on the Kon-Tiki balsa raft in 1947.''Abora II''
