The so-called teneboim is an idiophone instrument, its literal translation is wild cocoons, which belong to the Four Mirrors butterfly; once dry, some small stones are placed inside; Once the process is finished with each of the cocoons, they are joined by a thick cotton thread, this thread or cord measures between 40 to 50 cm. Contrary to the teneboim used by the Venado dancer, no colored tassels are attached to the ends of the cocooned cord.<\/p>\n
The teneboim are used by the dancers of Venado, Pascolas and Chapayecas, as anklets on their legs. They have an esoteric meaning that is difficult to decipher, since it does not seem irrelevant that for their manufacture the cocoons are grouped in pairs, one with a deep voice, which seems to represent a male entity, and the other with a high-pitched timbre, reminiscent of the female voice, suggesting a dialogue or a complementation of opposing principles (Varela, 1986). Another mythical meaning in the case of the Pascola is that these teneboim represent the serpents (or evil) that tried to attack the mythical Yo’awa (deer) when he went down to the Yaqui River to drink water.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":527,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","format":"standard","class_list":["post-334","tnc_col_310_item","type-tnc_col_310_item","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tnc_tax_118-musical-instrument","tnc_tax_87-religion-and-culture-sonora-mexico-state-holy-week","tnc_tax_87-religious-dance-mexico","tainacan-item-single-page"],"blocksy_meta":{"styles_descriptor":{"styles":{"desktop":"","tablet":"","mobile":""},"google_fonts":[],"version":6}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/redescubramossonora.mx\/museumoftheyaquis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tnc_col_310_item\/334","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/redescubramossonora.mx\/museumoftheyaquis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tnc_col_310_item"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/redescubramossonora.mx\/museumoftheyaquis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/tnc_col_310_item"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/redescubramossonora.mx\/museumoftheyaquis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=334"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/redescubramossonora.mx\/museumoftheyaquis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tnc_col_310_item\/334\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":529,"href":"https:\/\/redescubramossonora.mx\/museumoftheyaquis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tnc_col_310_item\/334\/revisions\/529"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/redescubramossonora.mx\/museumoftheyaquis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/527"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/redescubramossonora.mx\/museumoftheyaquis\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=334"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
