ABSTRACT

In the Amazonian literature, the scarcity of numerical terms and lack of interest in counting, which characterize diverse indigenous peoples in the region, are usually associated with linguistic issues or cultural limitations. My purpose in this paper is to take a different approach and relate the enumeration processes of one of these peoples, the Wari’, to their conception of beings as intrinsically transformative, which affects the determination of quantities and the stability of sets.

异教算术：亚马逊土著的不稳定集

摘要

在亚马逊文献中，数字术语的稀缺和对计数缺乏兴趣是该地区不同土著人民的特征，通常与语言问题或文化限制有关。我在本文中的目的是采用不同的方法，将其中一个民族瓦里人的枚举过程与他们认为存在本质上具有变革性的概念联系起来，这会影响数量的确定和集合的稳定性。
