  • "Yanomamo feasts are ceremonial, social, economic, and political events. They are occasions for men to adorn their bodies with paint and feathers, to display their strength in dance and ritualized aggression; for trading partnerships to be established or affirmed; and for the creation or testing of alliances."

  • "Yanomamo feasts are ceremonial, social, economic, and political events. Men adorn their bodies with paint and feathers to display their strength in dance and ritualized aggression; trading partnerships are established or affirmed; and alliances are created or tested. In this film, the Patanowa-teri invite the Mahekodo-teri to their village. The two groups had been allies until a few years earlier, when they fought over the abduction of a woman. Through feasting, trading, dancing and chanting, a new alliance is formed."

They are occasions for men to adorn their bodies with paint and feathers, to display their strength in dance and ritualized aggression; for trading partnerships to be established or affirmed; and for the creation or testing of alliances. In the feast filmed in 1968, the Patanowa-teri had invited the Mahekodo-teri to their village. The two groups had been allies until a few years before this event, when they had fought over the abduction of a woman. They now hoped to renew their broken alliance, which they did successfully. Soon after the filmed feast, the two villages together raided a common enemy. A detailed discussion of this feast, and of the significance of feasting among the Yanomamo, is found in chapter 4 of Chagnon's Yanomamo: The Fierce People. The film's graphic representation of reciprocity and exchange may enrich (and be enriched by) a reading of Marcel Mauss' The Gift."

  • "The Feast fait partie d'une série de films réalisés par T. Asch et N. Chagnon chez les indiens Yanomami du sud du Vénézuela et du nord du Brésil. Ce documentaire traite du rôle des repas collectifs et des échanges commerciaux, dans la mise en place et l'entretien d'alliances politiques entre villages. Les Patanowa-teri ont convié les Mahekodo-teri à un repas de fête, espérant ainsi renouveler leur alliance perdue. Une description détaillée de cette fête et la signification des repas collectifs chez les Yanomami sont traités dans l'ouvrage de Napoleon A. Chagnon, The Fierce People (chap. 4). The Feast illustre les théories sur le don développées par Marcel Mauss concernant les transactions économiques et la réciprocité."
