Amerindian Warfare ~ (Suriname)

Suriname

In the old days

The Amerindian communities

Of Galibi at the Maroni river

Also known as Kalinya

And Bigi Poika or Akarani

At the Saramacca river

Used to shoot black magic arrows

In the direction of each other

As well as sending off

Miniature sailing vessels

Packed with bad spirits

The skills of the shaman or pyjai

Was decisive for victory
