Nota de IA: expansion-2026-08: overview compiled with AI assistance as original prose from cited public sources (https://bdpi.cultura.gob.pe/pueblos/awajun, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aguaruna_people). Population figure: 70468 (2017, INEI 2017 national census figures as reported by Wikipedia; BDPI records 56,584 native speakers). Awaiting contributor and community review.

Sensitivity: Use Awajún, not Aguaruna, which is the colonial exonym still found in older sources and in the English Wikipedia title; 'jíbaro' is offensive as an ethnic label and the family is increasingly called Chicham or Aents Chicham. Population figures conflict badly across sources: Peru 2017 census gives 37,693 self-identified, 56,584 childhood speakers and c. 70,468 residents of Awajún localities, while the English Wikipedia still cites a 1993 figure of c. 5,000 and a 2000 figure of c. 8,000 — do not mix these. Bagua 2009 casualty figures (33 dead) follow the Peruvian Ministry of Culture; totals and attribution remain politically disputed and one officer was never accounted for. Anen songs and visionary experience (the ajútap/waimaku complex) are restricted personal knowledge — the text names the genre but publishes no content, and reviewers should not add any. The reference to documented sexual abuse of Awajún schoolgirls by teachers is included because it is a matter of public record and active Awajún advocacy; keep it neutral, sourced and non-sensational, or remove it if the platform's editorial policy excludes such material. Kinship with the Wampis, Achuar and Shuar is close — avoid presenting Awajún material culture as if it were uniquely theirs where it is shared across the family. Awaiting contributor and community review.

Sensitivity: Deliberately withheld: the texts of anen, which are individually owned power songs taught in confidence and not public property; the sequences, substances, songs and content of the waterfall vision practice associated with ajutap and of the women's tobacco practice, which the Ministry of Culture itself records as subject to deliberate Awajun reserve; and any procedural description of the historical tsantsa complex, which is named as documented history and museum-repatriation context only. Also withheld: every preparation method, plant part, dose, combination or recipe for sangre de grado, una de gato, chuchuhuasi, toe, ayahuasca or any other plant; plants are named only at the level already published as used in health contexts. Flagged rather than resolved: the Ministry of Culture's attribution of loom weaving to men, which is not universal in the literature; whether cotton weaving survives as living practice or mainly as revival; and the fact that the most detailed published analysis of tankamash and ekent spatial division is based on Shuar houses in Ecuador and is applied to the Awajun by extension. Awaiting contributor and community review.

Nota de IA: audit-fix, follow-up to the diacritics restoration: termino and practica are ambiguous as bare words (noun or conjugated verb) and were left alone in the first pass. Following a determiner, or in the plural terminos, only the noun reading is possible, so those instances can be accented safely. Bare ambiguous forms remain untouched and still want a human read.
