Intercambios entre humanos y árboles en el área istmo-colombiana. Aportaciones etnográficas desde Gunayala (Panamá)

Martínez Mauri, Mónica·2020·Tabula Rasa

Abstract

The relationships that are built between human and plant collectives have been understudied by ethnography in the Isthmo-Colombian area. In this article, drawing on an ethnographic experience of more than twenty years among the Gunas of Panama, we study the modes of relatedness between humans, trees and subjectivized beings stemmed from the latter —the so-called Nudsugana: Anthropomorphic and zoomorphic wood carvings that harbor life. From an ontological approach, this case study describes three elements: (a) the place occupied by trees in the creation of the Guna world; (b) their role in healing processes, and (c) the co-residence of the Nudsugana. As a conclusion, interdependency relations between humans and trees are analyzed, showing that their lives, although intertwined, hold to logics of subjection and are framed within a hierarchical symbiosis.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
