Historial de Huaorani

Nota de IA: sections-wave1-2026-08: compiled with AI assistance as original prose from cited public sources (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Huaorani_people, https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Huaorani, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Huaorani_language, https://nawe.org.ec/la-nawe/, https://amazonfrontlines.org/chronicles/waorani-victory/, https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0066293, https://news.mongabay.com/2023/08/ecuador-referendum-halts-oil-extraction-in-yasuni-national-park/). Sensitivity: Never use 'auca' — it is a Kichwa-derived pejorative meaning 'savage' still found in older literature and in the road name Vía Auca (which is quoted only as a place name). Waorani is the preferred self-designation; Huaorani is the Hispanised spelling retained here only as the requested slug. Population figures are genuinely unresolved (c. 2,400 to c. 5,000 depending on whether provincial census counts or community registers are used) and the article says so. The Tagaeri, Taromenane and other Waorani-related groups in voluntary isolation live inside and around the Zona Intangible: never publish locations, sighting reports, or anything that could assist contact, and note that violent encounters have occurred. Curare preparation and songs owned by individual singers are treated as restricted; do not publish recipes, song texts, or recordings without consent. The 2023 Yasuní referendum result is factual but its implementation is politically contested — the text keeps this neutral and dated. Verify the 612,000 ha figure for the 1990 grant against a primary Ecuadorian source before printing it as exact; sources give slightly different totals depending on later additions. Awaiting contributor and community review.

Sensitivity: Deliberately withheld: any description of shamanic or curing practice, of what is sung or done inside a ceremony, and of the internal sequence of the eeme feast beyond its publicly stated social function; all song texts. Also withheld entirely: preparation of curare and other dart or fish poisons, and any plant-plus-preparation pairing, part, dose or method, because Huaorani botanical knowledge includes actively dangerous material and because it is the communities' collective intellectual property. Nothing is described about the Tagaeri and Taromenane peoples in voluntary isolation beyond noting their existence and that their situation is one of protection; no locations, routes or contact details of any kind. Flagged rather than resolved: whether the Huaorani produced their own pottery consistently or acquired much of it from neighbours, which is genuinely unsettled in the literature; the several competing Wao Terero names for chambira in published sources; and the sharp disagreement between sources over whether the eeme feast has lapsed or is being revived. Awaiting contributor and community review.

Nota de IA: audit-fix: these Spanish sections were loaded through a path that stripped every accent and every eñe, so the entire Spanish half of eleven profiles read as unaccented text. This revision restores diacritics by rule, applied ONLY to words whose unaccented spelling is not itself a valid Spanish word — so no meaning is guessed at. Genuinely ambiguous pairs (esta/está, mas/más, aun/aún, solo/sólo, termino/término/terminó, publico/público/publicó, practica/práctica) are deliberately left untouched and still need a human pass. Source blocks containing URLs were skipped entirely so that citations stay byte-exact. No wording, fact or figure was changed.

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.
