Where the name comes from
According to the supplier, the Huni Kuin, also known as Kaxinawa, an indigenous people of the Amazon basin, call the jiboia, the boa constrictor, Yuxibu, and the snake appears in their creation story. The kuripe takes its name and motif from it. It is not made by the Huni Kuin: the supplier names artisans in Nova Friburgo, a town in the Brazilian state of Rio de Janeiro.
