Abstract
Through an analysis of some ethnographic examples (Matis, Akawaio,Guayaki, Cayabi), the chapter shows how in Indigenous Amazonia tattooing was connected in multiple ways to cultural conceptions regarding both the fabrication of the person and the classifications of world components, in which complex systems of correspondence between diverse domains organize people's experience and thought.
