Kurzfassung:
"Structural analysis of cosmology and social organization of the Wari' (Pakaasnovos), a Txapakuran-speaking people of western Rondônia, presented in extraordinarily rich detail. Investigates mortuary practices, shamanism, and the central importance of cannibalism to Wari' culture. Examination of cannibalism under two aspects, 'exo-' and 'endo-' cannibalism, referring to the domains of cosmos and society respectively, reveals predation as the dominant organizing principle of Wari' worldview"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.. - http://www.loc.gov/hlas/
