Description:The session was recorded in the researchers house at the Kuikuro village of Ipatse. Carlos fausto (ethnologist of the Kuikuro Project) asks to the old Hopesé and his son Tsaná to tell the story of the origin of the Hagaka festival (Javari).
The Project "Linguistic, Historical and Ethnographical Documentation of the Upper Xingu Carib Language or Kuikuro (Brazil)"began in December 200 in the context of the DOBES Program supported by the Volkswagen Stiftung and with the technical support of the Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics (Nijmegen).
This file was generated from an IMDI 1.9 file and transformed to IMDI 3.0. The substructure of Genre is replaced by two elements named "Genre" and "SubGenre". The original content of Genre substructure was: Interactional = 'conversation', Discursive = 'explanation', Performance = 'narrative'. These values have been added as Keys to the Content information.
Hopesé begins telling the narrative of the mythical origin of the ritual (an intertribal feast) called Hagaka and known in the upper Xingu as Javari. Tsana, Hopese's son, sings the "songs of the bow" (tahaku igisü). A conversation between the collector and the two Kuikuro men follows the mythical explanation, commenting and explanining the Kuikuro ritual system.
The Kuikuro language is dominant, with some questions and comments in Portuguese.
One of the oldest Kuikuro, Hopese is a ritual specialist and among the last and few knowers of the Kuikuro traditions and history.
Apprentice of the father Hopesé and ritual specialist. Good singer.
