Abstract
German
German
Ein junger Mann aus Shimaa gewinnt Bastfasern aus Agaveblättern, schabt, wäscht und trocknet sie. Er drillt mehrere Fasern linksförmig zu Fäden und zwirnt sie auf dem Unterschenkel rechtsförmig zu einer endlosen Schnur zusammen. Er fertigt mit Hilfe zweier Maschenmaße ein von Männern mit Stirnband getragenes Tragnetz mit zweischlaufigen, gekreuzten Knoten.

Jeronimo, a young Matsigenka, who has a wife and small child and still works for his father-in-law, shows how threads are obtained from an agave plant to make cords, how th cord is made and how a carrying net used by men is made from one continuous thread, i. e. is worked from one continuous twisted thread in a knotting technique (of the two crossed loop type). As the conclusion of the work on the carrying net could not be filmed, Jeronimo shows how a carrying net is held or carried with the headband.
