Mientras los #mapuche celebran el We Tripantu y los #aymara el Machaq Mara, las comunidades realizan ceremonias, agradecimientos y encuentros que destacan la conexión con la naturaleza elmorrocotudo.cl/noticia/cultu

  4. "Bolivian police arrested native peasant leader Vicente Salazar on June 6 during a repressed march in La Paz as social movements demanded the resignation of President Rodrigo Paz."
    "The mobilization represents a unified front of rural and urban workers opposing state violence. Activists emphasize that the detention of Salazar will only strengthen their determination, so they plan to reinforce road blockades and assemblies in the coming hours."

  8. TC debe resolver si declara admisible inaplicabilidad de norma de integración del consejo CONADI.

  10. The American anthropologist Bruce Mannheim notes that “#Quechua is the only #language centered on the other.” We can paraphrase this by saying that the #Aymara communication system is centered on #jiwasa, the “we-being” or “communal we”; this is why it is difficult to separate oneself from the other, the principle of jiwasa always includes even the enemy. cc: @friendsjournal #Quakers #Linguistics #FirstNations #NativeAmericans #History #Culture #Colonialism #Religion friendsjournal.org/jiwasa-the-

    #Aymara language is super fascinating.

    ''Basically, I found a way to teach the computer any grammar by using the Aymara syntax,"

    nytimes.com/1984/12/01/world/o

    It's self correcting and algorithmic.
    Guzman used it to construct translation algorithms in the 1980s (German and English I think)

    It's probably a single existing #language that may give credibility to previous advanced civilizations on earth.

  15. 350-year-old mummified head in Switzerland traced to Bolivia’s Aymara people after new study

    A mummified head housed in Switzerland for more than a century is rewriting what experts thought they knew about its origins. For many years, the remains—consisting of a preserved face, cranium, jaw, and part of the neck—were believed to be the skull of an Inca man. Now...

  17. The word cholita has in the past been used as a pejorative term for the Indigenous Aymara women of Bolivia. But the women in these photographs are reclaiming the word: they are “Cholitas Escaladoras”, or climbing cholitas. In 2019, they summited the 6,961 metre (22,841ft) peak of Mount Aconcagua in Argentina, the highest mountain outside Asia, while wearing traditional dresses and shawls.

  19. Sailing a reed boat of ancient #aymara on #titicaca highest navigable lake in the world, from photo-story at thevagabondcouple.blogspot.com

    Living in high #andes the #Aymará way of life tied to harsh environment includes agriculture, herding, weaving vibrant #alpaca #ponchos & building boats from buoyant totora reeds from around Lake Titicaca. One boat actually sailed across #atlantic!

  20. I'm starting to make concept albums typical of progressive rock, but generated with Suno.com and with words made by different AIs from the words to my story "El Secreto de la Awicha". It's a kind of ethno-futurist story about a magical Aymara girl with the power to make it rain by playing her quena. I'm loving the format for storytelling and trying out different genres to work with each publication. #aymara #circus-ska #mathrock #cosmovision #huaynoprog suno.com/playlist/2cad72fb-167

  21. Switzerland returns centuries-old mummies to Bolivia in landmark repatriation ceremony.

    The Bolivian minister identified them as of Pacajes de origen Aymara origin, a culture established in the region between 1100 and 1400.

  23. United Nations Failed #Indigenous in #Peru: #CopperMining and Electric Vehicles Mean Death

    By Brenda Norrell, Censored News, October 24, 2023

    "Indigenous mothers from the Amazon in Peru told the United Nations that they were being shot by the army from helicopters, their children were being murdered, and they were being stalked home from protests to defend their land from mining.

    "The United Nations failed them, refused to make them a priority, reduced their pleas to a series of numbers in their report, and failed to tell the world that the United States government sent its military in June to bolster the illegal regime that was killing them.

    "An Indigenous from Peru told the United Nations Human Rights Committee in October that the people were disappointed that the murder of their leaders was not included in the United Nations report."

  26. For some reason #gpt has a bizarre and unsettling analysis of #Aymara. Asked to translate "I have a dog" it produces a grammatical sentence that means "the undead exist". Why is this?

    How is this relevant? - Helps to find new sources.😉

    What I've learned from this #Peruvian website is that there were also different #WaterManagement systems, apart from the #WaruWaru.

    E. g., the "#ChacrasHundidas" (Northern #Peru) or the "producción en andenes" (all of Peru), as Ronald Ancajima of GSASUAGA, states here:

  30. Interesantísima introducción a las investigaciones aún en curso sobre la lengua Pukina en Sudamérica por el Profesor Rodolfo Cerrón Palomino de la PUCP.

    Es fascinante cómo la historia se puede transformar mientras se va escribiendo y re-escribiendo a través del tiempo.

    Afortunadamente siempre nos deja algunas evidencias que permiten voverla a reconstruir, al menos en parte.
