Abstract
This chapter is based on long-term ethnographic research conducted in Apiao from 2001 onward. The research was partially funded with grants from the Regione Autonoma della Sardegna and CIIR (Centro de Estudios Interculturales e Indígenas); both institutions are gratefully acknowledged, together with the generous people of Apiao who have been allowing me into their lives for 15 years.
