A Teleut Shaman and her DrumHer drum is oval, warped, amazing, and far from perfectly shaped. The surface of her shaman drum is divided into two worlds, the Upper World and the Lower World. A wavy line (the "sacred path") separates the worlds and is also a border around the Upper World. In the Upper World are the Sun and planets or stars. There are also horses, riders, birds, and trees. In the Lower World are a man, a fish, and a turtle. These figures, taken together, tell the shaman's story. |
