A day in the life of a Peruvian shaman - Gabriel Prieto
Follow Quexo, a Peruvian shaman, as he searches for cinnabar to complete a special ritual that will protect his village from winter storms.
--
The year is 1400 BCE. At the temple of the fisherman, the morning is unusually still and this is just the latest in a series of troubling signs for Quexo, the village shaman. The villagers live off the sea, but this year the winds have died and the fish have dwindled. He’s seen this before- his only hope to fix it is a special ritual. Gabriel Prieto outlines a day in the life of a Peruvian shaman.
Lesson by Gabriel Prieto, directed by Globizco Studios.

First Aztec midwife, now ancient peruvian shaman... I am loving this pre-colombian trend! It's so original to go with a coast fishing village shaman from The Kotosh Period! It's like, the least commonly known part of anyway little known peruvian history - long after Norte Chico, still before Cupisnique and Chavin de Huantar. It's not like the Inca aren't cool. They're *Incredible*. But still, lasted less than 10% of Andean Civilization history. Animation is beautiful and amazingly hearth-warming for a topic like this! Please do more!

THANK YOU for uploading this series Ted-Ed! also for sharing the not-well-known diverse culture of the south american civilizations. it's really a happy surprise to learn more about ones' ancestors!
1. Love this series. 2. Its really cool to see him responding to an event we see today. Specifically El Nińo. I wonder what caused him to think this ritual would work? Was he trying to appease a specific God or Goddess? How did he respond if it didn't work? (Or if it did?) So many questions.

Hello, the Quexo ritual is not to stop the storm, it is so that when it falls, it does not destroy its village on its way, since the storm was a divine gift, to which they pay tribute. And cinnabar was not to be eaten or painted, it was to purify the land where he would perform his ritual.
