Conklin Narrator: Ana Osorio Format: mp3 Length: 12 hrs and 54 mins Release date: 08-16-22 Ratings: 4 out of 5 stars, 1 rating Genres: Indigenous Studies Publisher's Summary: As late as the 1960s, the Wari' Indians of the western Amazonian rainforest ate the roasted flesh of their dead as an expression of compassion for the deceased and for his or her close relatives. By removing and transforming the corpse, Wari' death rites helped the bereaved kin accept their loss and go on with their lives. Drawing on the recollections of Wari' elders who participated in consuming the dead, this book presents one of the richest, most authoritative ethnographic accounts of funerary cannibalism ever recorded.
