    Abstract: Eine Frau aus Quebrada Taparral zerreibt gekochte und gequollene Maiskörner auf einem Mahlstein. Die Maismasse schüttet sie in ein Kalebassensieb auf einem Holzgestell, feuchtet sie an und preßt sie mit der Hand, bis sich im darunterstehenden Holzgefäß genügend milchiger Maissaft angesammelt hat, der mit Kalebassenschalen geschöpft und getrunken wird.
    Abstract: A middle-aged woman is preparing chicha, an unfermented drink made from maize. The preparation takes places inside the house. For this she had brought a large supply of corn over from her chacre (cultivated field) and then had boiled this corn for almost a day before leaving it to set in a bowl. Now she brings in an ablong, rounded, wooden dish and a special wooden platform with a large opening in it in which a perforated gourd dish will be placed. She also brings in a shapeless metate (grinding stone) and a stone mano. With this mano she proceeds to crush the corn seeds, already softened by boiling. The resulting mass she repeatedly tosses into the gourd strainer set in the opening of the wooden platform which in turn is placed cross-wise over the wooden dish. With her hands she strains the corn mass through the strainer extracting fresh, milky corn juice which drips into the wooden dish underneath. When enough has fallen into the wooden dish members of the family scoop it up with unperforated half gourds and drink it.

    Abstract: Ein Mann aus Santa Rosa de Sucumbios schlägt mehrere Paulinia-Ranken zum Herstellen von Yoko, einem Stimulansgetränk bei Erschöpfung und Schlafmangel. Er trägt das Bündel nach Hause, schabt die dünne Lianenrinde ab, wässert sie in einer Kalebassenschale und trinkt davon.
    Abstract: Fidel Lucitante, one of the more important inhabitants of Santa Rosa de Sucumbios on Rio San Miguel, a tributary of the Alto Putumayo river in Colombia, needs a supply of yoko stimulant for a long trip down river. Yoko, a liana, is used as a stimulant especially against exhaustion and lack of sleep when the Cofán have a number of long days of hard work ahead of them. On all trips a supply of yoko is carried and it can be prepared during the trip itself. After a fair amount of searching in the forest Fidel locates the hanging vine of Paulinia, which is used for making yoko, and he takes a bundle of it home. Of this bundle, however, he uses only a few long sections. He scrapes the thin bark of the liana into a pile and later mixes the scrapings with water in a tree gourd. The yoko is thus brewed and Fidel tastes it.

    Abstract: Ein Mann aus Quebrada Taparral sammelt Lianenranken. Seine Schwiegertochter entfernt deren Rinde, spleißt die Lianen der Länge nach und schabt sie mit der Machete dünn und geschmeidig, flicht ein vierteiliges Diagnonalgeflecht in 3/3 Köperbindung und macht aus den offengelassenen unteren Enden den Fächergriff.
    Abstract: A man, called Marcellino, gathers some hanging vines in the forest in order to have them made into a fire fan by this daughter-in-law. She first strips the bark of the lianas Marcellino had collected and then smooths them over and thins them down with a machete before beginning to plait the fire fan. She starts by crossing a few strands and then adds more and more horizontally and vertically, leaving open loose ends in the lower half from which she will later make the handle for the fire fan. The film shows an oblique 3/3 twill plaiting made in 4 sections.

    Abstract: Zwei Männer aus Igarapé Belém fällen einen Baum, lösen die Rinde und trennen mit einer Machete Borken- und Bastschicht. Die Bastschicht rollen sie zusammen und legen sie zu Hause über Nacht in Wasser. Dann klopfen sie den Rindenbast mit einem schweren Holzschlegel, waschen ihn und wringen ihn aus, bevor sie ihn trocknen lassen.
    Abstract: Celestino, a Tucana man, together with a companion makes a large bark cloth for his household. They select a suitable tree in the forest, cut it down and then pound the log out of it in order to loosen the bark. This pounding is mainly done with a machete. Then they strip away the bark and spread it on the ground, where they proceed to separate, with a machete, the inner bark from the outer bark. They roll the inner bark into a bundle and take it home. Here they keep it in water overnight before pounding it again with a special, crude mallet made of heavy wood, for this purpose. Finally they squeeze the water out from the bark cloth by twisting it hard at both ends, before spreading it out once more on the ground, removing the rough bits and leaving it to dry. The tururi is thus complete.

    Abstract: Eine Frau aus Estirón füllt Maniokmasse in den Preßschlauch, den sie spiralig verdreht und am Dachsparren aufhängt. In die untere Schlaufe zieht sie einen Stock, dreht ihn mehrfach um den Hausbalken, wobei der blausäurehaltige Manioksaft herausgepreßt wird. Die entgiftete Masse schüttet sie in sie in ein Holzgefäß, zerstampft und siebt sie und bäckt daraus Fladen.
    Abstract: A young woman is preparing manioc to eat. The pounded manioc is brought over into the tipiti lying stretched out in its entire length on the ground. The interior of the tipiti is filled with manioc pulp. The next task is to twist the tipiti with the manioc over and over like a puttee. The instrument is thus shortened and a woman can bring it under the roof of the house to suspend it from one end from the rafter. Into the lower loop she inserts a long stick which serves as a handle. She twists this handle 180 degrees round the house pole along with the tipiti is suspended, and then she goes back to repeat this action several times, sometimes not twisting it to such an acute angle. Under this pressure the venomous manioc juice is squeezed out into a vessel beneath. When the juice has all been removed the content of the tipiti is thrown into a large wooden vessel; it is then ground with a large semi-circular manioc pounder of exceptionally heavy wood, and then strained over a basket strainer in order to remove coarse bits and give it uniform consistency. Once strained the manioc flour is laid out in roundish, flat cakes over huge pottery plates set on tripods of clay over the fireplace. The cakes are baked for a short while until they are ready to eat.

    Abstract: Ein Mann aus Santa Rosa de Sucumbios gewinnt Bast und flicht damit zunächst in leinwandbindiger, randparalleler Flechttechnik in beiden Richtungen in die Breite und dann diagonal in Längsrichtung eine Maniokpresse, wobei er die Enden zu einer Art Schlauch verengt und die beiden übrigbleibenden Flechtstreifen jeweils zu einer Schlaufe zusammenbindet.
    Abstract: A man, inhabitant of Santa Rosa de Sucumbios, is manufacturing a tipiti. He begins with an excursion over to the Ecuadorian side of Rio San Miguel to locate an appropriate tree from whose bast he will make the instrument. He fells the tree, strips the bark in long strips and then separates the inner bark form the outer bark. It is the inner bark that he will use for the tipiti. He ties the bast into several bundles and carries them home, where he begins to plait a tipiti out of it. He starts by crossing two strands, then adds one more each alongside those first laid out, and then continues thus until the tipiti has several strands across upon which he adds then only to its length. The ends from both sides are narrowed down into a soirt of tube and then tied over to form a loop from which the tipiti will be suspended from the rafters; through the lower loop a stick will also be inserted to enable his female relatives to twist the tipiti and thus to squeeze out the poisonous manioc juice. The female shows the beginning the rectangular then oblique 1/1 plaiting of a tipiti with tubular diagonally braided ends.

    Abstract: A man from Santa Rosa de Sucumbios on Rio San Miguel in Alto Putumayo is making a spear. He first goes into the forest over the Ecuadorian side of the river to cut down an appropriate tree (a species of palm tree) for the spear shaft. He brings this home and begins to work it into proper shape by thinning it down with a machete. Once this is accomplished he picks out a loose, dried bamboo stem, lying in the clearing near the house. This he slices lengthwise in two and shapes it into the desired form with a machete. He then twists a length of the Mauritia palm fiber into slender string with which he will tie the spear bamboo head to the shaft. Following this he slightly heats a chunk of beeswax with which he attaches the bamboo spear head with the string fiber he has just made.

    Abstract: Ein Mann und sein Sohn aus Quebrada Taparral holen Früchte von Borojoa patinoi aus dem Wald. Seine Frau halbiert die Früchte, schabt das Fruchtfleisch aus, füllt es in eine Kalebasse und erhitzt diese, wobei die weiß-rosa Masse schwarz wird. Sie malt damit mit Hilfe von zwei- oder dreizackigen Stäbchen gerade und geschwungene Linien und Punkte auf den Körper ihrer Tochter.
    Abstract: A man and his son bring in the river fruits of Borojoa patinoi from the forest and this fruit will be used for preparing a black-bluish dye. His wife will prepare this dye. She slices the fruit with a machete and extracts the interior mass and fills an old Crescentia cujete gourd with it. She slightly heats this gourd with the fruit over a fire-place and as result of this the content, orginally pinkish-white, turns black. With this dye the women later paints her daughter. To apply the dye to the body she uses special traditional sticks, two- or three-pronged, and with these she sketches out designs, mostly linear and straight, but also a few curving lines on the girl's back, chest, arms, face, and nose. The girl herself also helps in this, painting some of the designs. The paint, which is applied largely for festivities or visits, lasts several days.

    Abstract: Ein alter Mann aus Santa Rosa de Sucumbios stellt aus Holz ein etwa 2,4 m langes Blasrohr mit Mundstück her: Er vierteilt einen Baumstamm, behaut, erhitzt und richtet die zwei Stücke, hobelt sie plankonvex, markiert, schnitzt und poliert die Laufrillen, umwickelt den Schaft alle 20 cm mit Palmfasern, picht ein geschnitztes Mundstück auf den Endzapfen, umwickelt den geharzten Schaft mit Bast und picht ihn mit Harz.
    Abstract: The blowgun is being made by Narcisio Lucitante. Narcisio, like many of the Cofán in the area, is an expert in both the use of the blowgun as well as in its manufacture. His first task was to bring in appropriate half sections of wood for the future blowgun and to this end he crossed over to the Ecuadorian side of the river where such trees as used for the weapon have not yet been totally depleted by the Cofán. He chopped down one of them with an axe and thinned it down on the spot into sections which he then brought home. Further work all took place entirely at home. The halves were thinned down and worked over in part on the special wooden platform set near the house for this purpose. The tools consist of a machete, a plane (not always used) and a knife. When both half sections had been smoothed and properly finished they were glued together with tree resin and tied at intervals with slender fiber. After this they are wrapped up in closely spaced bast fiber and finally covered with a layer of heated pith to give the weapon a protective black glaze.

    Abstract: Ein junger Mann schlägt zwei ca. 3 m lange Palmholzteile zurecht, kürzt und bearbeitet sie, meißelt eine Mittelrille heraus, poliert sie, klebt sie mit Harz zusammen und umwickelt sie. Er schnitzt Pfeile, einen Reinigungsstock, höhlt zwei Baumfrüchte für die Baumwoll-Pfeilmanschetten aus und vergiftet Pfeilspitzen auf einem Froschrücken (Pyllobates bicolor).
    Abstract: A young man makes a blowgun. His first task is to select a suitable tree in the forest. He brings home, however, only certain selected thinned-down sections as carrying an entire trunk would be too difficult. When he has selected a suitable length of sections for the two halves of the blowgun, he brings them home and begins to work. First the blowgun is made: two long palm wood sections are thinned down to the desired length with the aid of a machete. Then a central groove is drilled and both halves glued together with resin and then wrapped up with bast. The various accessories to the blowgun are then manufactured. The bamboo quiver is made from a piece of very thick bamboo, and then, with the use of a chisel, a lid is fitted on top of it. The darts are prepared from a palm, by splitting away thin slivers of the tree. A ramrod is also made for cleaning the blowgun, and this also comes from a palm tree. Finally the cotton container is made from a fruit nut which is hollowed out especially for this purpose. The poison for the darts is extracted from bright yellow, fairly large frogs of the species Phyllobates bicolor, which he has already captured. By rubbing the tip of the darts against the back of the frog, whose skin secretion is extraordinary venomous, the darts are then rendered poisonous.
