Notas:

  • Etnográfica:
    Small red beans, a lot of which they grow themselves, and from which they save some to plant again the next time. Like other crops, a lot of work to keep animals away from, to weed, to harvest, to shell and to dry. Used to keep them in a gourd to keep them dry and to help keep out mice, weevils, etc. Now they use jars or other containers. If they get weevils, they won't germinate. Eaten boiled, stewed with coconut milk, stewed in coconut milk with rice (and salt plus onion, black pepper, gourd pepper, if you have it), boiled, sometimes fried. (coconut oil if they have enough coconuts to make it). Newly-harvested red beans accompanied by boiled or stewed breadkind are very tasty. If they have enough, they will sell some.

untas aing tuaa

I. N

1. animal,fish small flounder-type fish

Notas:

  • Etnográfica:
    Ramas do not generally eat flounder-type fish, which seem to be fairly small fish in the region. Not seen in restaurants or markets, either. Several sea fish are composites based on "tua," which is more of a fresh or brackish water fish, indicating that the Ramas were probably not sea people originally. Tuba from the creeks, rivers and lagoon are still highly desired fish, though as of 2008, heavily decimated by overfishing and use of pesticides and other toxins by the mestizos to dump in the water and float the fish (and everything else) up.
    Se atrapan en los trasmallos o en las redes puestas para chacalines. El pueblo Rama generalmente no come los peces flotadores que parecen ser peces bastantes pequeños en la región. Tampoco se ven en los restaurantes ni en los mercados. Muchos peces de mar tienen nombres compuestos con la palabra “tuaa”, que son peces más de aguas dulces o salobres y que podría indicar que el pueblo Rama originalmente no era un pueblo marinero. Las “tuba” de los criques, ríos y lagunas son muy apetecidas y desde el 2008 se han diezmado grandemente por la sobreexplotación, uso de pesticidas y otros tóxicos que utilizan los mestizos para sacar a flote los peces (y todo lo que existe).
