Mammalian Diversity and Matses Ethnomammalogy in Amazonian Peru Part 5. Rodents
In this report, the fifth and last of our monographic series on mammalian diversity and ethnomammalogy in the Yavari-Ucayali interfluvial region of northeastern Peru, we document the local occurrence of 40 species of rodents, including 5 sciurids, 17 cricetids, 1 caviid, 1 cuniculid, 2 dasyproctids, 1 dinomyid, 2 erethizontids, and 11 echimyids.The following substantive taxonomic results, among others, are reported: (1) We discuss current issues …
Variaciones sociosemióticas del simbolismo de Sol y Luna entre los pueblos pano
El artículo analiza y contrasta los patrones de modelización sociosemiótica de Sol y Luna que codifican los significados denotados y las representaciones sociales de los astros en los grupos étnicos de la familia lingüística pano. El estudio de estos motivos simbólicos constituye una vía de aproximación al campo cultural pano que ofrece datos sobre su configuración interna y sus relaciones externas. La estrategia de investigación empleada es el e…
Reanalysis of Shipibo Stress Motivated By New Data on Prefixation
Shipibo, spoken in Amazonian Peru, has a complex system of word-level stress assignment that early studies described as being partially predictable and partially lexically determined. More recent studies have attempted to analyze Shipibo primary stress as overall predictable by postulating underlying consonants. However, hitherto no phonological studies have considered the effect of prefixation on stress assignment, which provides definitive evid…
Why Is Matses an Onomatopoetic Language
The lexicon of the Matses language of the Panoan family, spoken in Amazonian Peru and Brazil, has an extraordinarily high proportion of terms of onomatopoetic origin. To understand how and why onomatopoeia has become so prominent in the Matses language, this study presents linguistic properties of Matses onomatopoeia that reveal its high level of integration into the language, and identifies aspects of traditional Matses culture that contribute t…
Homonimia de etnónimos en la familia Pano
Un error común en estudios etnohistóricos, etnográficos y hasta lingüísticos es suponer que un etnónimo refiere a una sola etnia. "Homonimia de etnónimos", es decir, casos en que dos o más etnias (o divisiones de diferentes etnias) comparten el mismo nombre o nombres muy parecidos, son especialmente frecuente en la familia lingüística Pano. Considerando que las etnias que comparten el mismo nombre muchas veces están geográficamente próximas, los …
Mammalian Diversity and Matses Ethnomammalogy in Amazonian Peru Part 4
In this report, the fourth of our monographic series on mammalian diversity and Matses ethnomammalogy in the Yavarí-Ucayali interfluvial region of northeastern Peru, we document the occurrence of 98 species of bats, including 11 emballonurids, 2 noctilionids, 66 phyllostomids, 1 furipterid, 4 thyropterids, 7 vespertilionids, and 7 molossids. New species based on specimens collected in this region (Peropteryx pallidoptera, Micronycteris matses, Hs…
Los Sensi de la Familia Pano
Los sensis fueron un grupo pano contactado por los misioneros franciscanos en 1811 en las cabeceras del río Maquía, afluente del lado este del Ucayali. Desaparecieron de las bibliografías desde mediados del siglo XX, y su lugar dentro de la familia lingüística pano es polémico. Este artículo hace un estudio etnohistórico de todas las referencias bibliográficas de primera mano sobre este grupo, divididas entre las fuentes franciscanas, informes de…

Mammalian Diversity and Matses Ethnomammalogy in Amazonian Peru Part 3
This report is the third in our monographic series on mammalian diversity and Matses ethnomammalogy in the Yavarí-Ucayali interfluvial region of northeastern Peru. Based on taxonomic analysis of specimens collected in the region, we document the occurrence of 19 species of marsupials in the genera Caluromys, Glironia, Hyladelphys, Marmosa, Monodelphis, Metachirus, Chironectes, Didelphis, Philander, Gracilinanus, and Marmosops. Our principal taxon…
Productivity and Lexicalization in Shipibo Body-Part Prefixation
Shipibo, a Panoan language spoken in Amazonian Peru, has a set of 31 monosyllabic forms, representing mostly body parts, which are phonologically attached to the front of verbs, adjectives and nouns. For most of these morphemes, noun roots designating body parts exist which are semantically similar and whose initial segments are the same. Consequently, previous scholars have analyzed these prefixed forms as allomorphs of or otherwise synchronical…
Mammalian Diversity and Matses Ethnomammalogy in Amazonian Peru Part 2
This report continues our monographic analysis of mammalian diversity and Matses ethnomammalogy in the Yavarí-Ucayali interfluvial region of northeastern Peru. Based primarily on specimens collected in the region from 1926 to 2003, interviews with Matses hunters, and published sight surveys of large mammals, we document the local occurrence of 33 species of xenarthrans, carnivores, perissodactyls, artiodactyls (including cetaceans), and sirenians…
The Historical and Linguistic Identity of the Remos
This article explores all of the available historic, ethnographic, and linguistic evidence concerning interfluvial Panoans known as Remo, one of the most important ethnic categories in Ucayali basin historiography.A review of the historical references to Remos from the late 1600s to the present led to the hypothesis that the term Remo has been used to refer to different peoples at different times.A careful evaluation of the available Remo word li…
Panoan languages and linguistics

Body-Part Prefixation in Kashibo-Kakataibo
Most Panoan languages have closed sets of about 30 monosyllabic forms that attach phonologically to the front of nouns, adjectives, and verbs. These forms, mainly designating body-part notions and semantic extensions of these, appear at first glance to be synchronically derived from polysyllabic body-part noun roots. This paper offers the first detailed study of the phonological, morphological, syntactic, and semantic properties of prefixation in…
Reported Speech in Matses
In Matses reported speech, the personal, spatial, and temporal indexicals of the reported speech act must be maintained from the point of view of the original speaker, thus resembling a strict form of direct speech. However, substantial paraphrasing, extraction, reconfiguration, and de re construals are permitted, which are features more typically associated with indirect speech. We give a detailed account of this unique reported speech system, i…
Ergatividade em Matsés (Pano)
Este texto explora diferentes padrões de alinhamento dos argumentos na gramática da língua Matsés da família Pano, com ênfase especial na forma como a morfologia da língua aparentemente está tornando-se mais ergativa. O Matsés apresenta um forte padrão de marcação de caso do tipo ergativo/absolutivo, mas o alinhamento ergativo/absolutivo restringe-se ao sistema de caso e a alguns padrões morfológicos menores.A concordância de pessoa marcada no ve…
Mammalian Diversity and Matses Ethnomammalogy in Amazonian Peru Part 1
This report is the first installment of a monographic study of mammalian diversity and ethnomammalogy in a sparsely inhabited rainforest region between the Yavarí and Ucayali rivers in northeastern Peru. Our study is based on several large collections of mammals (totaling about 3500 specimens) made at various localities in this region between 1926 and 2003, and on our long-term ethnobiological and linguistic fieldwork with the Matses, a Panoan-sp…
Pet Vocatives in Southwestern Amazonia
Languages of several families of southwestern Amazonia have a set of vocative terms for calling tamed animals kept as pets. These vocatives are mostly unrelated to the referential nouns for the species and more likely than other words to be borrowed between unrelated languages
Sugerencias metodológicas para realizar trabajo de campo lingüístico en la Amazonía
En el presente artículo, propongo una metodología y ofrezco algunas recomendaciones de carácter práctico para realizar trabajo descriptivo con lenguas poco estudiadas, a partir de mi propia experiencia de campo en la Amazonía occidental. Los temas desarrollados aquí incluyen la evaluación y uso de la literatura lingüística disponible, la preparación para la permanencia en el campo, el trato con los hablantes de la lengua en cuestión, las técnicas…
Coreferential Fourth-Person Pronouns in Matses
Matses, a Panoan language spoken in Amazonian Peru and Brazil, has two fourth‐person (= “interclausal third‐person coreferential”) pronouns, an ergative one (ambi ) and an absolutive one (abi ), that are used in subordinate clauses to indicate coreference with an argument in a higher clause. These fourth‐person pronouns are typologically exceptional in that they do not also code possession or intraclausal coreference, do not play a role in indire…
Did the Kulinas become the Marubos? A Linguistic and Ethnohistorical Investigation
This paper presents the results of a study designed to clear up confusion surrounding the ethnic and linguistic identity of several indigenous groups from western Amazonia that have been denominated “Kulina,” “Marubo,” or variants of these terms. Linguistic analysis revealed unequivocally that the term Kulina has been used to refer to three different languages, two in the Panoan family and one in the Arawan family, and that the term Marubo has be…
Evidentiality and double tense in Matses
The Matses language of the Panoan family, spoken in Amazonian Peru and Brazil, has one of the most intricate evidential systems ever described, requiring speakers to precisely and explicitly code their source of information every time they report a past event. In a typologically unique inflectional configuration that I call DOUBLE TENSE the speakers specify both (i) how long ago an inferred event happened and (ii) how long ago the evidence upon w…
Antipassive in Matses
In this paper I analyze ergative patterns and the antipassive construction in Matses, a Panoan language spoken in western Amazonia. The Matses antipassive appears initially to be fairly typical, but is unique in that, in addition to the cross-linguistically typical indefinite Patient reading, it can also be used to code an unmentioned first-person Patient. Furthermore, only verbs specifying human O’s can take the antipassive suffix, and only verb…
Body-Part Prefixes in Matses
Matses, a Panoan language spoken in Amazonian Peru and Brazil, has a set of 28 monosyllabic forms, representing mostly body parts, which are phonologically attached to the front of verbs, adjectives, and nouns. All Panoan languages seem to have a similar set of morphemes, and there is some controversy about whether these are prefixes or incorporated nouns. Here, this phenomenon is exemplified in detail for Matses, and I argue that while this proc…
