Master potters of the central Ucayali whose women paint kené, the maze-like geometric designs of healing visions, onto clay and cloth alike.

Fused from Shipibo, Konibo and Shetebo, they survived missions, rubber and colonization to number ~35,000 in hundreds of riverside villages around Pucallpa and Yarinacocha.
