English

as for the natives of north america, in the pre-colombian cultures feathers played a very important role: the most commonly used were those of the quetzal bird (pharomachrus mocinno, today an endangered species) which were used in ceremonial ornaments that would have changed the human body into a sort of a bird-man, mythic and venerated.

così come per i nativi dell america del nord, nelle culture precolombiane le piume avevano un ruolo molto importante; le più usate erano quelle dell uccello quetzal (pharomachrus mocinno, oggi specie in pericolo) che venivano usate per gli ornamenti cerimoniali che dovevano trasfigurare il corpo umano in una sorta di uomo-uccello mitico e venerato.
