description The hunting deer and the agriculturalist maize. The deities’ identity in the náyeri’s mitote. This article shows how the identity of the náyeri deities is constructed within the agricultural ceremonies named mitote. After analyzing the ritual cargos used to personify the deities and the ties between them, this study will approach other elements normally led aside but that seem to be essential: objects and chants. Through the actions and roles played by the deities’ personifications we will try to define the complexity of their presence along the ritual and the effect that it has on the executants of the mitote.
