ABSTRACT
A series of drawings of Toba mythical beings, made in 1983, gave rise to an inquiry involving the people of two communities, La Primavera and Misión Tecaaglé, both in Formosa Province, Argentina, to test their identification or recognition of these mythical beings (see Fig. 4.1).1 The resulting information exceeded the limits of the original project, and this chapter presents preliminary results of the analysis of the data. These have both cognitive and symbolic aspects.2
