Image description

A Yawalapiti tribe member carries a supply of wild manioc to her hut just after sunrise in her Alto Xingu village in the lower Amazon region, May 13, 2002. Manioc is a staple of the Yawalapiti, although it is poisonous in its raw form. The women must grate it and wash it, which removes the poison, then dry the flower into cakes, which takes the form of "beiju" porridge. Once on the border of extinction, the Yawalapiti have built their tribe up to 180 members from just seven some 50 years ago through inter-marriage with other Xinguano tribes in the same cultural area. The tribe lives almost exclusively from fishing and are famous for their "Quarup" festival; a 'ritual of the dead', which is performed in the year following the death of a tribe member of chieftan family lineage.
