Description

Huaorani of the Western Snippet documents changes that the Huaorani culture of eastern Ecuador underwent over a period of fifty years.

Part I focuses on the geographical, historical, sociological and economical background of the Ecuadorian Amazon as well as the problems that indigenous groups of this region face.

Part II describes different aspects of Huaorani culture, and its consecutive subsections present research completed by anthropologists in different decades of twentieth century, and the data is reviewed and supplemented with data gathered during my research (2007-2013).

Part III explores the life of a Huao man, Miñe, who serves as a local shaman.

His different social roles are discussed in consecutive subsections in order to understand what shaped him as a person of the Huaorani group.
