"The Makuna of eastern Colombia inhabit an Amazonian rain forest teeming with plant and animal life that provides them not only with a livelihood but also with cultural inspiration that infuses their daily life and frequent ritual performances.".

"In full-color photographs and an evocative text, Diego Samper and Kaj Arhem celebrate the natural surroundings, domestic life, and vibrant rituals of a rain-forest people whose cultural future is being jeopardized by outsiders' destruction of their lands."--BOOK JACKET.
