Oh yeah, and ancient cosmology:

The Yanomamo Cosmos portrays four layers
http://emuseum.mankato.msus.edu/cul tural/southamerica/yonomamo.html

This a quote from the emuseum yanomamo page:

'The religious beliefs of the Yanomam� are quite complex. According to Yanomam� wise men, there are four levels of reality. Through them, the Yanomam� belief that things tend to fall or descend downward to a lower layer is demonstrated.

The uppermost layer of the four is thought to be "pristine" and "tender". It is called "duku ka misi" and the Yanomam� believe that many things originated in this area. This layer does not play much of a role in the everyday life of the Yanomam�. It is considered to be just "there", once having some vague function.

The next layer down is called "hedu ka misi" and is known as the sky layer. The top surface is supposedly invisible, but is believed to be similar to earth. It has trees, gardens, villages, animals, plants and most importantly, the souls of the deceased. These souls are said to be similar to mortals because they garden, eat and sleep. Everything that exists on earth is said to have a counterpart on this level.

The bottom surface of the layer is said to be what the Yanomam� on earth actually see: the visible sky. Stars and planets are attached to this bottom surface and move across it on their individual trails.

Humans, or Yanomam�, dwell on what is called "this layer", otherwise called "hei ka misi". "This layer" was created when a chunk of hedu broke off and fell down. This layer has jungles, hills, animals, plants and people who are slightly different,�variants of the Yanomam� who speak a dialect of Yanomam� that is "crooked", or wrong.

Finally, there is the surface below "this layer" which is formally called "hei ta bebi", which the Yanomam� say is almost barren. They believe a variant of the Yanomam� live here. These people originated a long time ago when a piece of hedu broke off, crashed down to "this layer", creating a hole and eventually falling through to become it's own layer. Here, they have no game animals and have ruthless cannibals. They send their spirits up to "this layer" to capture the souls of children, which are carried down and eaten.

In some Yanomamo villages, the shamans contend with the people on the bottom layer, attempting to discourage their cannibalistic ways.'
