However, there are regions where they have a prominent presence, for example in the Amazon and the Sierra. In the Amazon, there are the following nations: Achuar, Ai’Kofán, Waorani, Siekopai (also known as Secoya), Quijos, Andwa, Shuar, Siona, Shiwiar, Sapara, and Amazonian Kichwa (comprised of multiple autonomous peoples, including the Kichwa People of Sarayaku).

  • In the Nexus Between People and Rainforest
    In the Nexus Between People and Rainforest An anthropological study of conservation projects and indigenous people in Ecuadorian Amazon Monica Husum Nilsen Master Thesis Department of Social Anthropology THE UNIVERSITY OF OSLO Spring 2012 ii In the Nexus Between People and Rainforest - an Anthropological Study of Conservation Projects and Indigenous People in Ecuadorian Amazon Monica Husum Nilsen iii © Monica Husum Nilsen 2012 In the Nexus Between People and Rainforest: an anthropological study of conservation projects and indigenous people in Ecuadorian Amazon Monica Husum Nilsen http://www.duo.uio.no/ Print: Oslo Kopisten AS iv Abstract This thesis is based on a multisited fieldwork in Ecuador, January-June 2011. Ecuador is preparing for REDD, a UN- project to reduce emissions from deforestation, but already conducts forest conservation in many places through PSB. These programs may have a major impact on the target groups, who are often indigenous peoples. The focus is on the dilemmas taking place in the nexus between the people of the rainforest and the people from the outside promoting conservation of the rainforest. Experiences from two different indigenous villages, one Secoya and one Shuar in the Amazon, tell a story of suppression, social change, unstable relationships and discrimination, but also glimpses of hope, strategic actions and choices coming from agency and empowerment. In the process of participation in such projects they are faced with problems of limited information, hastily made decisions and conflicting interests and opinions among the villagers. The money they will receive by joining is a great temptation, but the restrictions in self- determination of land-use implied have consequences.

To study the nutritional consequences of this newly created situation. individual anthropometric. agricultural and food consumption surveys were carried out among the colonizers and Siona-Secoya Indians. None of the children displayed signs of serious malnutrition. hut physical underdrwlopment, . infections and parasites were common, the settlers heing more affected than the Indians. With a lifestyle favouring better hygiene. agriculture majoring in food crops. and a more diversified menu. the suhsistence sisrem of the Sionas-Secoyas is better ahle to meet their needs and maintain their physical integrity than &at of the settlers, who are ill-adapted to their new surroundings and whose production is mainly oriented towards cash 'crops.

Ecuadorian amazon Cosmología y transformación en la percepción de los kichwa- lorocachi del pueblo ancestral Kawsay Sacha. Río Curaray. Amazonía ecuatoriana Diego Yela Dávalos Universidad de Cuenca [email protected] Orcid code: https://orcid.org/0000-0002-7004-8101 Abstract This article is the result of a larger study that investigates elements of the Kichwa cosmological system. The theme has been explored since the 80s from the so called perspectivist ontological turn that combi- nes theoretical models resulting from different ethnographic works with a common interest to propose alternatives to the traditional dualism between nature / culture. Based on an ethnographic methodology based mainly on the perceptions of local people, the article aims to show descriptively how certain cul- tural markers: shamanism and body building, local mythic and territorial perception are retracted. From the data collected, it is concluded that said retraction is due to the attractiveness of modernity and its te- chnologies, mainly towards the new generations. On the other hand we have the pause in the generational transfer of traditional knowledge. This is inserted in a particular socio-economic dynamic in a territory located outside the urban centers of modern development. Keywords Cosmology, cultural transformation, ontology, territory, ethnopolitics, shamanism. Suggested citation: Yela Dávalos, D. F. (2020).

  • BOOK REVIEW Vol
    20 BOOK REVIEW Vol. 5, No.1 Book Review Plants and Ancient Man, Studies in Palaeoethnobotany. Edited by W. Van Zeist and W.A. Casparie. 344 pp., illus, A.A.Balkema Publishers, Boston, 1984. The International Work Group for Palaeoethnobotany first convened in Prague, Czechoslovakia in 1968 and it has held meetings every three years hence. Plants and Ancient Man contains the proceedings of the sixth symposium sponsored by the State University of Groningen in The Netherlands in 1983. The thirty papers presented in this volume cover methodological problems, the use of documentary evidence, ethnographic models, and various European regional studies. A special section is devoted to the identi­ fication of archaeological wheats. The papers by Hillman and J ones discuss the potenials and problems of applying ethnographic models for cereal processing derived from Turkey and Greece, for inter­ preting prehistoric plant remains. Hillman's contribution also contains a test of his model on a palaeoethnobotanical assemblage from Cefn Graeanog in Wales. Willerding (Central Europe), Behre (Germany), and Green (England) explore the botanical content of medi­ eval maps, tax lists, paintings, court documents, herbals, brewery recipes, cook books, monastic texts, and market records. Green and Behre also compare the documentary evidence with the archaeological record. Forni analyzes the linguistic roots of Indo­ european agricultural terms to derive a unitary hypothesis for plant and animals domes­ tication that emphasizes the use of fire by prehistoric peoples for environmental mani­ pulation. Kislev (ancient Near East), Jacomet and Schlichtherle (Swiss Lake Dwellings), Janushevich (USSR), and Kosina (modem and prehistoric cultivars) tackle the difficult taxonomic problems of classifying cultivated wheats.
