Description: Projeto DobeS nr. 85 611 foi concebido por Hein van der Voort como um projeto de documentação interdisciplinar de língua e cultura no sudeste de Rondônia. O projeto envolve principalmente documentação de Aikanã e Kwazá, mas, ocasionalmente, também os grupos vizinhos traditionais Latundê, Salamãi e talvez Kanoê. Estes grupos vivem numa região que foi muita afetada por deflorestamento. As suas línguas e culturas estão sendo altamente ameaçados de extinção, enquanto poucos estudos (ou nenhum) foram feitos até agora. Este projeto DobeS foi aprovado pela Fundação Volkswagen em 2011. A instituição parceira alemã é o Instituto Max Planck Institute em Nijmegen, Holanda, administrado por Prof. Stephen Levinson. O projeto começou em fevereiro 2012, quando Lisa Katharina Grund foi contratado a meio tempo como doutoranda em antropologia. Em julho 2012 Eduardo Rivail Ribeiro foi contratado a tempo inteiro como pós-doc linguístico. O coordenador do projeto Hein van der Voort não está sendo financiado pelo projeto. O projeto Aikanã originou de um sub-projeto do programa de pesquisa: 2005-2010 Language diversity of the Guaporé region Financiamento: NWO (Organização Neerlandesa de Pesquisa Científica), stipêndio nr. VIDI 276-70-005, http://www.nwo.nl/projecten.nsf/pages/2000123775_Eng Radboud Universiteit Nijmegen & Museu Paraense Emílio Goeldi, Além disso, foram feitos gravações de Aikanã durante outros projetos: 1994-2000 Descrição da língua Kwazá Financiamento: NWO Rijksuniversiteit Leiden & Museu Goeldi 2001-2004 Descrição da língua Arikapú Financiamento: WOTRO Universiteit Leiden & Katholieke Universiteit Nijmegen & Museu Goeldi

DobeS project nr. 85 611 was conceived by Hein van der Voort as an interdisciplinary documentation project of language and culture in the southeast of Rondônia. It involves documentation principally of Aikanã and Kwazá, but occasionally also the traditional neighbouring groups Latundê, Salamãi and perhaps Kanoê. These groups live in a region that has been much affected by deforestation. Their languages and cultures are highly endangered, whereas little or no documentation and study has been done yet. This DobeS project and approved by the Volkswagenstiftung in 2011. The German partner institution is the Max Planck Institute in Nijmegen, headed by Prof. Stephen Levinson. The project started in February 2012 when Lisa Katharina Grund was hired half-time as an anthropological PhD student. In July 2012 Eduardo Rivail Ribeiro was hired as a full-time linguistic post-doc. Project leader Hein van der Voort is not financed by the project. The project is related to various previous projects: 2005-2010 Language diversity of the Guaporé region Financiamento: NWO (The Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research), grant nr. VIDI 276-70-005, http://www.nwo.nl/projecten.nsf/pages/2000123775_Eng Radboud Universiteit Nijmegen & Museu Paraense Emílio Goeldi, 1994-2000 Description of Kwazá Financed by: NWO Rijksuniversiteit Leiden & Museu Goeldi 2001-2004 Description of Arikapú Financed by: WOTRO Universiteit Leiden & Katholieke Universiteit Nijmegen & Museu Goeldi

Jilmar Aikanã helps Maria Tadeu to reconstruct a “shaman’s stool” with the wood from a tree trunk. This kind of stool or bench, called karɨi, was used only by the shaman, haditae, during his shamanic work, when sniffing rapé or parico, a snuff, called ayumenũ in Aikanã, travelling and communicating with the spirit world and other shamans. The ayumenũ, made from angico seeds and the burned bark of a tree, dape:ru in Aikanã, mirindiba in Portuguese, is usually blown into the nose through another shaman or person via a fine bamboo/grass/bone pipe, made for this purpose (see also Becker-Donner, p.283). According to Becker-Donner, ayumenũ is also the name of the “malevolent spirit” of disease. Iwerüa, a non-human being usually referred to as the cause of death and evil was, according to myth, the one who initially showed the powder to the humans. During his/her journeys, the shaman has to travel to a distant place to find out about sickness and cure (p.283). Today, these stools are not in use anymore among the Aikanã. The last acting shaman who used to cure people in the TI Tubarão-Latundê was the late Cap. Arui Uhune’i. Cap. Arui Uhune’i himself was initiated by the late shaman Mundé Txiridö “Kenepi”, stepfather of the late Cap. Pedro. Next to sacred music, the shaman Cap. Arui Uhune’i also had a great repertoire of songs sung at menina moça and dance festivities. While most of the Aikanã shamans are men, according to Marião, Cap. Arui Uhune’i’s wife, also women can become shamans. This can also be noted from the neighbouring Kanoê, where the strong female shaman, Tinamaty (“cobweb”), performs shamanic rituals.
