Language of Indigenous Descriptionnoa
DescriptionOur ancestors had a cornfield, upriver far from the house; but the ones who took care of it were single daughters. One day, they saw two unknown men who invited them to their house. Without opposing, they went with them, but after being threatened with being victims of cannibalism, thy escaped and arrived to their parents' house, who prepared themselves to kill those Kuna man-eaters.
