    Keywords: Abipon Indians ; Paraguay--Description and travel--Early works to 1800
    Abstract: The Abipón ethnographic collection is a small collection. The primary work, and the one that provided the major source of data for this summary, is that of the Jesuit, Father Martin Dobrizhoffer, who lived among this group for eighteen years in the mid eighteenth century. Dobrizhoffer was a keen observer of Abipón behavior and customs and the information he recorded forms the basis of what little we know about this now extinct group. The Dobrizhoffer document deals primarily with various aspects of ethnography, covering such topics as territory occupied, historical origins, physical appearance and characteristics, religion, tribal divisions, leadership (chiefs, captains or caciques), food, clothing, language, marriage customs, games, diseases, shamans (jugglers), death and mortuary customs, fauna, and warfare. The study by Metraux is a brief summary of the history of the Abipón, their relations with the Spanish and other aboriginal groups, and of missionary activity among them. This document, abstracted from the Handbook of South American Indians (Bulletin 143, Vol.1), largely duplicates information already contained in Dobrizhoffer

    Keywords: Amazon River ; Indians of South America--Amazon River Valley ; Jivaran languages ; Jivaro Indians ; Shuar Indians ; South America--Description and travel
    Abstract: This collection includes 30 English language documents, three translated from the German and three from the French, that contain specific data on the Jivaroan-speaking groups of southeastern Ecuador and adjacent Peru, including the Jivaro (Shuar, Shuara), Achuara (Atchuara, Achual), Huambisa, Aguaruna, Mayna, and the extinct Palta and Malacata. The major time span of the works in this collection ranges from about 1863 to 2003. Karsten, Stirling, Ḿetraux, and Harner provide the most comprehensive coverage of traditional Jivaro ethnography, supplemented to a much lesser extent by the brief summaries in Simson, Farabee, Reiss, and Hermessen. War, warfare related ceremonies, including data on head-hunting and the preparation of the shrunken heads, are prominent themes in Up de Graff, Dickey, Bollert, and Bennett Ross. Other ethnographic topics of interest in this collection are: the evaluation of missionaries, their activities and other reports in Rivet, Salazar, and Harner. The influence of Western music on the traditional music of the Jivaro is discussed in Belzner. The formation and activities of the Shuar (Jivaro) Federation in lowland Ecuador are described in Salazar and Harner. Two studies of Jivaro anthropometry will be found in Meyers and Wright . The Shuar are the best known subgroup and a major focus of this collection

    Keywords: Guarani Indians ; Guaraní ; Guaraní
    Abstract: The Guaraní live in lowland South America. They are heterogeneous wide-ranging groups inhabiting sub-tropical regions from the Andes to the Atlantic Ocean. This file consists of 9 documents with a time span of coverage from approximately the fifteenth century to the early 1990s. The geographic focus of the file is rather diffuse ranging from southern Brazil, southern Mato Grosso, Paraguay, and the border areas of Argentina, Paraguay, and Brazil. The best general coverage of all Guaraní groups is that found in Métraux. Schaden's material concentrates on the Guaraní subgroups of Mbyá Ñandevá, and Kayová; Hanke and the Watsons focus their attention on the Cayua (Kaiowá). The specific location of the Watson's fieldwork centers on the village of Taquapir. The more recent studies by Clastres and Ganson deal primarily with the historical Guaraní population in Paraguay and the mission areas on the borders of Argentina, Brazil, and Paraguay. Reed's work on the Chiripá of Paraguay (1981-1984) is an exploration of the various social and economic factors which has permitted this group to maintain their own distinct culture and society even after many years of contact with the dominant Paraguayan society. Major subject coverage in this file is on acculturation in various forms -- in terms of the Guaraní economy, religion, material culture, community and family structure, music, and folklore

    Keywords: Mataco Indians ; Mataco ; Mataco
    Abstract: The Mataco are Native Americans who live in the northern and central Gran Chaco from Bolivia to Argentina. This file consists of eight documents, two of which are translations from Spanish (Pelleschi and Métraux 1944) and one from French (Dijour). The works of Pelleschi, Métraux, and to some extent Karsten complement one another and provide an excellent background for a study of the traditional Mataco culture (relevant to the periods of the authors' fieldwork ranging from approximately 1875 to the late 1930s). Alvarsson's monograph reviews previous literature on the area, provides additional reconstructive information on the Mataco before the colonization of the area, and updates the existing ethnographic data. This document, used in conjunction with the works of Pelleschi, Métraux, and Karsten, should provide the reader with a relatively complete overview of Mataco culture and society. Other works in the file provide information on Mataco folktales, marriage customs, suicide, and curing ceremonies

    Keywords: Aymara Indians ; Aymará ; Aymará
    Abstract: The Aymara live in the Bolivian and Peruvian altiplano, centering around Lake Titicaca. This file consists of 16 documents covering the time period from 1860 through 1980. Tschopik and Buechler present comprehensive surveys of Aymara history and culture. A second work by Tschopik focuses on magical beliefs. LaBarre's writings include a general ethnography and articles covering the classification and use of potatoes, folktales, remedies, and sorcery. Forbes describes the area, material culture, and anthropometry. Chervin incorporates previously unpublished data on living facilities and livelihood from the early 1900s and data on physical anthropology. Metraux presents data concerning the religious practices and beliefs of the Aymara living in the province of Carangas, Bolivia. Bouroncle Carreon was a physician who presents a comprehensive study of the Aymara in the Department of Puno. Carter has written a functional study of cultural differences between the hacienda and the free community system. Other topics included in this file are ceremonies, magic, divination and acculturation, dreams, the soul, death, funeral customs, and eschatology, and a particular process of Aymara market participation in southern Peru, in which peasants travel long distances to produce coffee for sale
