The Ethnobotany of the Yanomami Indians

Authors

  • Ghillean T. Prance

Abstract

The  following was originally presented as a keynote ad-
dress to the Building Bridges with Traditional Knowledge
Summit meeting held  in Honolulu, Hawai’i  in May- June
2001.  At  the  time,  controversy  over  the  publication  of
Darkness  in El Dorado was  raging. Sir Ghillean Prance
provided this introduction to a pictoral essay on Yanomani
ethnobotany.  It is included here because it presented an
ethnobiologist’s perspective on the controversy as well as
a brief overview of literature on yanomani ethnobotany.
