Resumen
VACAS MORA, Víctor. BODIES, CORPSES, AND FOOD: CANNIBALISM, COMMENSALISM AND SOCIAL ORGANIZATION IN THE AMAZON. Antipod. Rev. Antropol. Arqueol. [online]. 2008, n.6, pp.271-291. ISSN 1900-5407.
This article briefy revises the most recent academic discussions about amazonic anthropophagy attempting to frame that practice on a wider background that provides a meaning for the activity of human fesh eating; a semiotic background that carries the discussion beyond the sensible and relocates it among the symbolic forms of social construction. The Amazonic cannibalism works in different levels, making possible a concrete form of build identity, a sociocosmical predation relationships and a specifc way of generate, fortify and keep the kinship and family ties.
