Eucalyptus Puyanawa Rapeh Snuff – Renewal

The Puyanawa is an indigenous group that inhabits the extreme west of the Brazilian state of Acre. They suffered greatly from the exploitation of rubber in the late 19th and early 20th century, since then many have died from illnesses and clashes. Their culture became nearly extinct , while they were forced to work as slaves in the rubber plantations they were catechized and forced to attend schools . Like many of the tries in the region they have since started a movement to regain their cultural identity. Recently they organized the first indigenous convention about Ayahuasca bringing together many tribes from the region to discuss their position on the spreading of the use of their ancestral medicines.

The Traditional Rapé snuff is normally made of tobacco powder and other herbs along with different tree ashes blended into fine scented powder that is blown into the nostrils. It has been used since the olden days during different periods and occasions. It has been used by local tribes in the forest who use it for numerous purposes such as medicine for treatment and healing and ceremonial activities. It is known to increase and improve brain activity and provide healing properties to the body.
