	Table of Contents and Excerpt, Conklin, Consuming Grief
		Wari' of all ages are keenly aware that people eating would brand them as savages in the eyes of the outsiders with whom their lives are now intertwined.
		Wari' see the body as something that connects the dead and the living through the ties of blood, flesh, and other elements that close family members share with each other, and through the emotional bonds of memory, especially memories of nurturance and support given and received.
		Wari' believe that the spirits of their dead join the realm of animal spirits, from which they return sometimes in the bodies of white-lipped peccaries (a piglike wild animal) that offer themselves to be hunted to feed their living loved ones.

		In Wari, TWO players compete against each other to see who can be the first to capture 25 or more stones.
		Wari is deceptively simple to play, but to win, you will have to plan ahead, and use your wits.
		The game is over when one player has taken a total of 25 or more stones, both players have taken 24 stones each (tie), or if the computer determines that the game is a stalemate, in which case each player takes the stones on his side of the board.

	Exploring News & Features - Giving cannibalism a human face (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
		Conklin, who is a medical and cultural anthropologist, began her study of the Wari' because she was interested in studying how the health and the medical practices of an indigenous population had changed as they came into contact with outsiders who brought new diseases and Western medicine.
		The case for Wari' cannibalism is based on the testimony of the Wari' themselves, corroborated by accounts of missionaries and government officials who said they had witnessed cannibalism at Wari' funerals in the 1950s and 1960s
		In discussions with older people, she learned that some were uncomfortable with the practice of burial, considering it to be a less respectful and less comforting way to treat the passing of someone you care about.

	Huari Culture - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Wari (or in Spanish spelling and other common name, Huari) was a Middle Horizon civilization that flourished in the Andes in the south of modern-day Peru, from about 500 to 1200 A.D. The capital city of the same name is located near the modern city of Ayacucho, Peru.
		The native language of the Wari area in recent times has been Quechua, though the comparative and historical study of the Andean languages suggests that the language of the Wari culture may have been a form of Aymara.
		Note: the Wari culture is not to be confused with the modern ethnic group and language known as Wari', with which it has no known link.

	Wari
		After conquering another people, as in most conquests, the Wari subdued the old cultures and enforced their own way of life forbidding any practice of the former culture, losing all traces of the unwritten culture that was conquered.
		Wari cities were made up of large rectangular shaped buildings that were laid out in strict grid patterns that would resemble most of today's city block structures.
		This caused the Wari to flee to the lower jungles of the Andes.

	The Chronicle: August 10, 2001: Love Me, Miss Me, Eat Me
		After interviewing dozens of Wari' who had lived through that time, however, she was surprised how many expressed nostalgia for the old way of dealing with grief.
		Conklin was told, the Wari' believe it is vital to create new memories of the dead person to supplant the old, something that many of the elders still think can be achieved only by watching them be consumed.
		Wari' identify memory and the physicality of human relationships as problems in the process of coming to terms with the death of a loved one.

		The Wari people developed their own pottery style (shown to the right) and art which was still popular long after the demise of the empire.
		The city of Wari is located deep in the Andes, on a hill overlooking the Mantaro River of south-central Peru.
		The occupants of Wari are defined as a culture of their own, because they were the center of an empire of the time.

	3. Bone appétite
		During the 1950s, the Wari' (pronounced wha-REE), who now number about 2,000, became one of the last native tribes in the world to be contacted by outsiders.
		"The Wari' believe you need to gradually create emotional distance between the living and the dead, because in a small society, the ties of love and affection to your family are your strongest bonds, and they don't automatically dissolve or loosen with death.
		Wari' funerary cannibalism, she insists, "has to do with compassion, and a kind of cycling and renewal of a life-supporting relationship." After death, she notes, the deceased is thought to return to the family as a peccary - a forest pig and dietary mainstay.

	Wari Citadel - Ayacucho Peru by Peru Travels
		It was Wari, capital of the first pan-Andean State, dating back well before the Incas, as the culture flourished in the area from 550-800 AD.
		Wari is a classic example of pre-Hispanic urban planning and engineering techniques.
		Wari is an expression of a mysterious era which one can only imagine.

		Again there appears to be no evidence that Wari potters borrowed or modified the Nasca Epoch 8 bodiless variation; thus the Chakipampa B potters were more likely influenced by earlier Nasca 7 and Huarpa styles which were passed on from one generation to the next and culminated in stylistic changes with their own mythological interpretations.
		For several reasons, I suggest that Wari artists were documenting their relationships with a supernatural world of mythical animals that represented their belief and explanation of the two-dimensional field of stars in the night sky.
		I suggest that the Wari artisans were at this time not in direct contact with the source of this iconography that the iconography was transferred linguistically by these elite individuals with chevron band headdresses and was then reinterpreted by the artisans.

	Ayacucho, The Wari an The Incas - What's New - Peru
		This was Wari, the capital of the first Pan-Andean state by the same name, that flourished in the 550-800 AD period, prior to the advent of the Incas.
		A visit to the citadel of Wari means exploring the Cheqowasi sector, consisting of various levels of underground funeral chambers - possibly mausoleums for governors and nobles - in whose construction rectangular, circular and quadrangular slabs of stone were used.
		Besides, the Wari had as their central deity the "God of the Staffs", an adaptation of the god Tiawanacu, represented in the famous "Portada del Sol" in Puno (the "Doorway of the Sun").

	Wari, Peru
		A tunnel, closed to visitors, leads underground 200 meters from the ceremonial area to a labyrinth of funerary chambers that was excavated in 1997 and leads an astonishing 19 meters below ground—the hidden level underground is apparently built in the shape of a llama.
		One theory holds that the Wari used these fortified chambers to store, and guard, both their own mummies and those of the cultures they conquered.
		Like the Incas, the Wari worshipped their ancestors’ mummies as a source of power and displayed them in public during sacred festivals, much the same way Catholic images are paraded during Ayacucho’s Easter Week festivities.

		However, older members of the tribe are uncomfortable with the practice of burial, considering it to be a less respectful and less comforting way to treat the death of a loved one.
		The Wari's practice of eating loved ones was not to meet protein requirements, but as a part of the grieving process.
		By removing and transforming the corpse, which embodied ties between the living and the dead and was a focus of grief for the family of the deceased, Wari' death rites helped the bereaved kin accept their loss and go on with their lives.

	Burning down the brewery
		In 600 A.D., the Wari chose this natural bastion as a base for an imperial settlement, but it was not been occupied before or since because it is so difficult to carry water and supplies up the treacherously steep inclines of the summit.
		At Cerro Baúl, however, the Wari apparently decided to establish a foothold deep inside the territory controlled by the Tiwanaku to serve as a point of contact for political relations.
		The mountaintop imperial Wari brewery and palace were burned down at an elaborate ceremony 1,000 years ago that involved feasting, drinking and vessel smashing.

		Bernard Von Graeve’s doctoral thesis concentrates on the history of contact between the Wari’ and national society, with a special emphasis on the history and organization of the Sagarana community, administrated by the Catholic Church.
		Her doctoral thesis in medical anthropology, ‘Images of Health, Illness and Death Among the Wari'’, analyzes experiences of illness in Wari’ society before and after contact, as well as conceptions of the body in Wari’ social relations, illness and funerary cannibalism – work which she has continued in various later articles.
		It comprises a study of Wari’ cannibalism, in both its literal and figurative forms, with an emphasis on cosmology, warfare, shamanism and rituals.

	Linguistics professor discovers new language in Brazilian rain forest
		Since then, he has visited the rain forest annually to continue his studies with the tribesmen, mainly the Piraha, whose language has only seven consonants and three vowels (the smallest number of sounds of any documented language) and can be whistled as well as spoken.
		After failing to find even a reference to Oro Win in the limited linguistic literature on such tribes, Everett concluded that the language was unknown to any Westerners except about a dozen living missionaries and employees of the Brazilian Indian Foundation, a government agency similar to the U.S. Bureau of Indian Affairs.
		After hearing the sound for the first time from Wari speakers, Everett was stunned to hear it again weeks later from the Piraha tribesman who had been his main teacher of that language.

	The Wari Complex and Its Importance - What's New - Peru
		Its capital, in the Ayacucho Region, was the citadel of Wari.
		Before the emergence of the Wari Culture, a less complex culture had developed in the Ayacucho Region, marking a transition from a rural village-type society to an urban one - this was the Huarpa culture.
		The citadel of Wari was the capital of the state by the same name and, according to some archaeologists, was the first major Andean empire (before that of the Incas).

		Mr Wari also gave evidence that he did receive correspondence from the Bank at the Hohola address and that the Bank was aware of his change of address.
		The fact that Mr Wari knew of his arrears is not a demand in writing required under Clause 1 of the Mortgage.

	Ancient brewery discovered on mountaintop in Peru
		Predating the Inca Empire by at least four centuries, this Wari brewery was used to make chicha, a fermented beverage similar to beer that played an important role in ritual feasting and drinking during Peru's first empire.
		Project botanists are attempting to recreate the ancient Wari beer brewed from the pepper tree berries using traditional pottery.
		When Wari colonists eventually abandoned the monumental complex atop Cerro Baúl, the ceremonial drinking halls and brewing facilities were treated to elaborate closing rites.

	Middle Horizon
		The agent of expansion north of the Titicaca Basin was the central highland polity of Wari (Huari).
		The nature of the connection between Tiwanaku and Wari is unclear with suggestions that the former was a major pilgrimage center, thus spread its influence through the visitors who attended its festivals, that it distributed its symbolism through its envoys, or that that initial Wari expansion to the south introduced it to the invaders.
		Wari iconography appears to a significant degree on the North Coast at the time of the end of the Moche period when central Wari motifs like the Gateway God and his attendants appear on ceramics and architectural murals indicating adoption by regional elites of Wari ideological tenets.

	Wari for the HP-41C
		Wari* is a board game which has been played for at least several centuries in various forms throughout Africa.
		Each player in turn removes all the counters from one bin on his side and distributes them one-at-a-time into successive bins moving counterclockwise, skipping the two bins which are for storing captured counters.
		To make a play on the calculator Wari board, the player specifies the bin he wants to move by keying in a number from 1 to 6 and then pushing either [A] or [B] (for player A or B).

		Since the computerized version of Wari discussed in this article does not include home base wells, only moves among your 6 wells (A, B, C, D, E and F) and among your opponent's 6 wells (A', B', C', D', E' and F') will be mentioned.

		Even though some people of high status are notorious for playing this game on ivory, gold, or marble based boards, the most common board is wooden with forty-eight pebbles (four in each side of the smaller bins.
		The board is divided into two sections: six bins "belong" to Player A and six bins "belong" to Player B. Traditional African Wari can be played many different ways, and the Mancala that most Americans know does not follow the traditional rules.
		In African Wari, Player A begins the game by picking up the pebbles in one of his bins.

		In the final section, building on his years of research and excavation, McEwan develops a hypothetical model of Wari provincial administration in the Cuzco region, arguing that the Wari were innovators of techniques of statecraft that explain the function of and the labor investment in the Pikillacta complex.
		She pinpoints some Wari presence in Cusco in the 6th century and extensive activity in the 7th century when Pikillacta was commenced.
		McEwan concludes in Chapter 10 that evidence for interaction of the Wari with the Tiwanaku is slim, but that there was 500 years of Wari imperial domination in the Cusco region that surely had a major impact on the formation of the Inca state.
