JEVEROS (JEBEROS, JIBAROS, JIVAROS Or GIVAROS)

This article appears in Volume V15, Page 361 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: JEE-JUN
JEVEROS (JEBEROS, JIBAROS, JIVAROS Or GIVAROS) , a tribe of
South
  American Indians on the upper Maranon, Peru, where they wander in the forests. The tribe has many branches and there are frequent tribal
wars
 , but they have always united against a common enemy. Juan de Velasco declares them to be faithful,
noble
  and amiable. They are brave and warlike, and
though upon the
conquest
  of Peru they temporarily submitted, a
general
  insurrection in 1599 won them back their
liberty
 . Curious dried human heads, supposed to have been
objects
  of
worship
 , have been found among the
Jeveros
  (see Ethnol. Soc. Trans. 1862, W. Bollaert).
