Amazon Medicine Man. Matis shaman (Bină Chapu Chunu) with facial ornamentation that imitates the jaguar. Note the ear and nose ornaments that are made from snail shells. The spines in his nose and lines tattooed on his cheeks are meant to imitate the jaguar, hence their nickname the "Jaguar People." |
