Ritual Recuperation and Relational Prioritization in Recent Andoque History (Northwest Amazonia, Colombia), Eliran Arazi (EHESS/Hebrew University of Jerusalem) LOCATION:Lesc – salle 308F (3e étage) - 21\, allée de l’Université\, Nanterre\, \, 9 2000\, France DESCRIPTION:

Séminaire Arazi 2Resembling ritual specialization and correspondences between ceremoni al careers and siblings’ birth order among neighboring “People of the Cente r” of the Caquetá-Putumayo interfluve, the Andoque have at present two ritu al careers: “red” (peo’si) and “white” (pofio). Like that other peoples in the region, the Andoque’s demographic and territorial rec uperation after the genocide perpetrated by the Anglo-Peruvian Rubber Compa ny (or Casa Arana) in the first decades of the twentieth century, was fuele d by the reconstruction of their ritual system from 1930s onwards. Many of the ritual and political modifications these peoples actively introduced in to their societies are referred to emically as a transition from a “basket of darkness” to a “basket of life,” a rejection of cannibal practices and s orcery which is usually interpreted in research as connected with the const ruction of a peaceful pluri-ethnic society (Echeverri 2010; Lucas 2019). Ho wever, in the Andoque case, the ritual career which is being prioritized is the red, aggressive one, while the white one, considered peaceful by many, is downplayed, and its rituals are neglected, even feared.

In this p resentation I will explain this apparent contradiction by examining the red /white division as a particular manifestation of the tension found througho ut Northwest Amazonia between vertical and horizontal shamanism (Hugh-Jones 1994). Through an overview of the main Andoque rituals, the myths on which they are based and the relational realities that they seek to enact, I pro pose a reconstruction of the ways in which historical, economic, and politi cal circumstances have contributed to the objectification and institutional ization of the two ideal types of shamanism and how they have shaped the cu rrent dynamics between the two ritual careers. In this way, the present-day marginalization of the white career positions the regional post-genocide r ecuperation process within the context of shifting modes of relations betwe en human and nonhuman beings.

Sém inaire Arazi 2Resembling ritual specialization and correspo ndences between ceremonial careers and siblings’ birth order among neighbor ing “People of the Center” of the Caquetá-Putumayo interfluve, the Andoque have at present two ritual careers: “red” (peo’si) and “white” (pofio). Like that other peoples in the region, the Andoque’s demogra phic and territorial recuperation after the genocide perpetrated by the Ang lo-Peruvian Rubber Company (or Casa Arana) in the first decades of the twen tieth century, was fueled by the reconstruction of their ritual system from 1930s onwards. Many of the ritual and political modifications these people s actively introduced into their societies are referred to emically as a tr ansition from a “basket of darkness” to a “basket of life,” a rejection of cannibal practices and sorcery which is usually interpreted in research as connected with the construction of a peaceful pluri-ethnic society (Echever ri 2010; Lucas 2019). However, in the Andoque case, the ritual career which is being prioritized is the red, aggressive one, while the white one, cons idered peaceful by many, is downplayed, and its rituals are neglected, even feared.

In this presentation I will explain this apparent contradict ion by examining the red/white division as a particular manifestation of th e tension found throughout Northwest Amazonia between vertical and horizont al shamanism (Hugh-Jones 1994). Through an overview of the main Andoque rit uals, the myths on which they are based and the relational realities that t hey seek to enact, I propose a reconstruction of the ways in which historic al, economic, and political circumstances have contributed to the objectifi cation and institutionalization of the two ideal types of shamanism and how they have shaped the current dynamics between the two ritual careers. In t his way, the present-day marginalization of the white career positions the regional post-genocide recuperation process within the context of shifting modes of relations between human and nonhuman beings.
