Native Use
The Yucuna tribe members use Chapune snuff in ceremonies to bring harmony to the group. The local Shamans, known as ‘Curacas,’ use the snuff as a powerful tool for rebalancing and during traditional festivities before dancing around the fire. They also use it during important meetings where community decision-making debates are taking place. Additionally, the snuff is used for blessing the ‘Chontaduro,’ a highly nutritious peach palm fruit that is a staple food among all Amazonian tribes.
What is Rapé?
Rapé is a traditional snuff used by various indigenous tribes of South America, predominantly tribal people from Brazil and Peru. The snuff is a ground mixture of plants, tree bark, seeds, and ash, and is blown into each nostril through a bone or bamboo pipe called a ‘Tepi’ or ‘Kuripe.’ Each tribe has its own rapé formula, and the selection, mixture, and grinding process are regarded as a ritual only to be performed by a reputable healer. The snuff is typically made in small batches according to the specific needs of the person being treated or the ceremony’s occasion.
