Тезаурус:

1. Traditional Campa agriculture is based on garden or chacra plots which are used mainly for the cultivation of manioc, although plantains, bananas, sweet potatoes and beans are also grown on a smaller scale.
2. The farmers plant one or two crops of maize or manioc, and then use the land mainly as pasture for cattle or for small plantations of coffee.
3. A proper meal, they say, should be comprised of both meat (the product of men's labour) and manioc bread (the product of women's labour).
4. Discussions about wild cocoa would be accompanied by the drinking of bowls of chicha , the daily staple diet of the Indians, made by the women from manioc: ground, masticated, and fermented.
5. The first stage in cultivation involves forest clearance (though particular tree species which are valuable for timber are usually spared) and as annual crop plants such as manioc ( Manihot esculenta ) and maize ( Zea mays ) are cultivated, perennial species such as pineapple ( Ananas comosus ) and banana ( Musa spp.) are planted along with numerous other fruit trees, palms and shrubs that can be used for a variety of purposes from thatching to dyes and medicines.
6. It's the sort of thing that gets handed down as the women are pounding the manioc root or whatever.
7. The male/female distinction is not an important structural principle in Semai society: the sexual division of labour is clear, but not rigid; there are no counterparts to the Mehinaku bachelor described by Gregor (1985) who goes hungry and cold rather than undertake the women's tasks of preparing manioc and hauling firewood; to a Semai, such behaviour would simply be absurd.
