Yuxibu
The Kaxinawa tribe, also known as the Huni Kuin, is an indigenous group from the Amazon basin, known for their rich cultural heritage and deep connection to the natural world. Central to their cosmology is the creation story featuring the jiboia, which they call Yuxibu. According to Kaxinawa lore, Yuxibu is a sacred creator figure, often depicted as a giant serpent, embodying the primal forces of nature and the universe. Yuxibu is believed to have shaped the world, sculpting the rivers, mountains, and forests that define the Amazonian landscape. This creator serpent also gave life to the people and taught them the essential skills for survival, such as hunting, fishing, and farming, along with profound spiritual knowledge. The Kaxinawa hold Yuxibu in high reverence, viewing this entity as a guardian of both their people and the rainforest, guiding them in maintaining the balance and harmony of their environment. This creation story is not just a tale of the past but a living part of the Kaxinawa’s everyday spiritual practice, influencing their rituals, art, and social organization.
