Kubyt-kuka mask. Masks are used by the Kayapò in some rituals, and this one in particular represents the opposite entity, which messes up life. It's crazy and makes fun o people, it's a prankster and scares the children.
Whoever wears the Kubyt-kuka (karô) highlights the defects and reveals with irony the secrets of the people present.
In the Museum since 2002. From the village of A'ukre.
