icaro
Icaro (Quechua: ikaro) is a South American indigenous and mestizo colloquialism for magic song. Today, this term is commonly used to describe the medicine songs performed in vegetal ceremonies, especially by shamans in ayahuasca ceremonies.
Each Amazonian ethnic group has a specific term for this type of generic magical song: for example, eshuva for the Huachipaire people, meye for the Piaroa, mariri for the Kokama, or rao bewá for the Shipibo.
