Isi artikel

In his ethnographic reconstruction of the culture of the Kiliwa, a Yuman-speaking tribe of Baja California (Mexico), Meigs (1939) mentions the name of a wooden idol known as 1iipumj6s in approximate Spanish orthography. However, Meigs offers no etymology, grammatical analysis, or translation of this name and only provides a meager description of its role in Kiliwa aboriginal funerary rites. This paper attempts to shed light on both the linguistic and cultural role of this ritual object as well as the metaphors it embodies.
