One of the great riddles of cultural history is the remarkable
parallel that exists between the peoples of Amazonia and those of
Melanesia. Although the two regions are separated by half a world
in distance and at least 40,000 years of history, their cultures
nonetheless reveal striking similarities in the areas of sex and
gender. In both Amazonia and Melanesia, male-female differences
infuse social organization and self-conception. They are the core
of religion, symbolism, and cosmology, and they permeate ideas
about body imagery, procreation, growth, men's cults, and rituals
of initiation.
