This route explores the circulation of shamanic artefacts from Upper Rio Negro region, State of Amazonas, Brazil. Almost the totality of these objects have been removed from their original context during the colonial period due to the intervention of different agents. Today, they are imprisoned in ethnographic museums together with the spirits that animate them. To make them free once again, an interdisciplinary and international team composed of European and Brazilian, Indigenous and non-Indigenous researchers and leaders is working on a project in collaboration with the Museu Etnologico Missionario of Colle Don Bosco (Asti, Italy) to promote their virtual repatriation.<\/p>\n
