A man from Santa Rosa de Sucumbios on Rio San Miguel in Alto Putumayo is making a spear. He first goes into the forest over the Ecuadorian side of the river to cut down an appropriate tree (a species of palm tree) for the spear shaft. He brings this home and begins to work it into proper shape by thinning it down with a machete. Once this is accomplished he picks out a loose, dried bamboo stem, lying in the clearing near the house. This he slices lengthwise in two and shapes it into the desired form with a machete. He then twists a length of the Mauritia palm fiber into slender string with which he will tie the spear bamboo head to the shaft. Following this he slightly heats a chunk of beeswax with which he attaches the bamboo spear head with the string fiber he has just made.
