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 2 Resembling ritual specialization and correspondences betwee n ceremonial careers and siblings’ birth order among neighboring “People of the Center” of the Caquetá-Putumayo interfluve, the Andoque have at presen t two ritual careers: “red” (peo’si) and “white” (pofio). Like that other peoples in the region, the Andoque’s demographic and terri torial recuperation after the genocide perpetrated by the Anglo-Peruvian Ru bber Company (or Casa Arana) in the first decades of the twentieth century, was fueled by the reconstruction of their ritual system from 1930s onwards . Many of the ritual and political modifications these peoples actively int roduced into their societies are referred to emically as a transition from a “basket of darkness” to a “basket of life,” a rejection of cannibal pract ices and sorcery which is usually interpreted in research as connected with the construction of a peaceful pluri-ethnic society (Echeverri 2010; Lucas 2019). However, in the Andoque case, the ritual career which is being prio ritized is the red, aggressive one, while the white one, considered peacefu l by many, is downplayed, and its rituals are neglected, even feared.

In this presentation I will explain this apparent contradiction by examini ng the red/white division as a particular manifestation of the tension foun d throughout Northwest Amazonia between vertical and horizontal shamanism ( Hugh-Jones 1994). Through an overview of the main Andoque rituals, the myth s on which they are based and the relational realities that they seek to en act, I propose a reconstruction of the ways in which historical, economic, and political circumstances have contributed to the objectification and ins titutionalization of the two ideal types of shamanism and how they have sha ped the current dynamics between the two ritual careers. In this way, the p resent-day marginalization of the white career positions the regional post- genocide recuperation process within the context of shifting modes of relat ions between human and nonhuman beings.

Resembling ritual specialization and c orrespondences between ceremonial careers and siblings’ birth order among n eighboring “People of the Center” of the Caquetá-Putumayo interfluve, the A ndoque have at present two ritual careers: “red” (peo’si) and “whi te” (pofio). Like that other peoples in the region, the Andoque’s demographic and territorial recuperation after the genocide perpetrated by the Anglo-Peruvian Rubber Company (or Casa Arana) in the first decades of t he twentieth century, was fueled by the reconstruction of their ritual syst em from 1930s onwards. Many of the ritual and political modifications these peoples actively introduced into their societies are referred to emically as a transition from a “basket of darkness” to a “basket of life,” a reject ion of cannibal practices and sorcery which is usually interpreted in resea rch as connected with the construction of a peaceful pluri-ethnic society ( Echeverri 2010; Lucas 2019). However, in the Andoque case, the ritual caree r which is being prioritized is the red, aggressive one, while the white on e, considered peaceful by many, is downplayed, and its rituals are neglecte d, even feared.

In this presentation I will explain this apparent con tradiction by examining the red/white division as a particular manifestatio n of the tension found throughout Northwest Amazonia between vertical and h orizontal shamanism (Hugh-Jones 1994). Through an overview of the main Ando que rituals, the myths on which they are based and the relational realities that they seek to enact, I propose a reconstruction of the ways in which h istorical, economic, and political circumstances have contributed to the ob jectification and institutionalization of the two ideal types of shamanism and how they have shaped the current dynamics between the two ritual career s. In this way, the present-day marginalization of the white career positio ns the regional post-genocide recuperation process within the context of sh ifting modes of relations between human and nonhuman beings.
