A preliminary ethnographic account. The article provides a preliminary account of the canoes made and used by the Piro (Yine) people of the Urubamba river in Peruvian Amazonia, with a particular focus on the processes of construction, naming and crewing. The canoe, among these people, is a basic model of affinity, both male-female and male-male. The canoe and canoe journeys are a basic social model of space for these people, serving a symbolic function that usually falls to house and village space in indigenous Amazonian societies. La pirogue piro. Un premier compte rendu ethnographique. Cet article a pour objectif de fournir un premier compte rendu sur les pirogues fabriquées et utilisées par les Piro (Yine), groupe vivant près du fleuve Urubamba, en Amazonie péruvienne. Y seront décrits les processus de construction, de nomination et de formation de l’équipage. Chez les Piro, la pirogue peut être considérée comme un modèle de l’affinité, dans les relations entre hommes et femmes, mais aussi entre hommes. La pirogue comme les voyages en pirogue correspondent à un modèle d’organisation sociale de l’espace, servant une fonction symbolique qui, dans les sociétés amazoniennes indigènes, revient, habituellement, à l’espace de la maison ou à celui du village. La canoa piro. Un informe etnográfico preliminar. Ese artículo propicia un informe preliminar acerca las canoas hechas y empleadas por el pueblo piro (yine) del rio Urubamba de la Amazonía peruana, con un enfoque especial en los processos de la fabricación, el nombreamiento y la composición de la tripulación. La canoa, entre este pueblo, es el modelo por excelencia de la afinidad, tanto entre hombres y mujeres como entre hombres. La canoa y los viajes de canoa representan, para este pueblo, un modelo social básico del espacio asumiendo así una función simbólica que normalmente recae en los espacios de la casa o del caserio en las sociedades indígenas amazónicas. |
