The myth of the stolen eyeballs - Nathan D. Horowitz
Рет қаралды 1,382,893
3 жыл бұрынDiscover the Siekopai myth of the air goblins, spirits who fly and control the winds, as they clash with the human world.
--
Deep in the Amazon rainforest in the river Nea’ocoyá lived a school of particularly big and tasty fish. When the rains came and the water rose the fish appeared, and swam away as the waters fell. Villagers along the river followed them to a lagoon and set up camp. But their young shaman soon sensed they might not be completely alone. Nathan D. Horowitz details the Siekopai myth of the air goblins.
Lesson by Nathan D. Horowitz, directed by Yijia Cao & Mohammad Babakoohi.

What's the point of having a shaman and not listening to them? That's like having an accountant and never taking their advice
@denzeltimehigh7407 3 жыл бұрын
It is greed and selfishness. Whenever you see something to good to be true, even when someone said it might be dangerous, you still tempt to get it. Example that one day you came across such mountains of money and gold. Even when someone said it might be a trap, someone who is foolish enough still want to get all the money and gold to be one of the richest man in the world. And then as you know, it happens. You never guarantee which one is good or bad, and it is universal that everything is neither purely good or bad. Whatever it was, it is up to your choice and decision.

Thank you once again!

I think it was because there were several bad goblins who, as Tyler Peterson said, had been attacking people and the Chief wanted to get rid of them, as inferred in the end when the goblin's tree is burnt and only those air goblins who were honest and non-carnivores were able to escape.

If you read (listen) between the lines , you can get some incites into the tribe's life. In the beginning it seems that the hunter gather society was straining fishing spots with their heavy use of Barbasco. They kept migrating as the fish populations declined constantly moving to better spots until they were in the territory of another tribe. It would appear that the whole tribe poisoned its self by Barbascoing the smaller and slow moving body of water and they fell into a slumber becoming vulnerable to both the other tribe and predators. The shaman ends up using the fauna knowledge learned from the other tribe to destroy them. He used pepper smoke and fire to force them to leave or burn them to death.
