本章回顾了人类和吼猴之间的接口的基础上的证据，从考古记录和民族志的当代土著社会。吼猴与人类相互联系的记录可以追溯到前西班牙时期。数据表明，玛雅人和阿兹特克人等中美洲文明曾与嚎叫者互动。此外，来自南美洲北方的社会成员在接触期之前就与吼猴建立了关系。在当今的土著社会中，吼猴不仅被食用，而且还出现在神话、宗教和社会象征中。吼猴是一种大型的长尾猴，在热带美洲的许多文化中是首选的灵长类猎物。然而，有些群体避免将它们作为猎物。把吼猴作为食物的文化禁忌通常与魔法传染有关，人们认为食用吼猴会传递它们的不良特征，比如嗜睡。此外，由于其他行为特征，如发声和人类相似性的想法，吼猴是当代土著社会宇宙学中的共同特征。例如，在低地南美洲的土著神话中，吼叫者的创造往往与人体变形有关。因此，可以认为吼猴是/是新热带地区土著社会中不同社会表征的主体。
This chapter reviews the interface between humans and howler monkeys based on evidence from the archaeological record and the ethnography of contemporary indigenous societies. The record of howler monkeys interconnections with humans may be traced back to the Pre-Hispanic period. Data suggest that Mesoamerican civilizations such as the Mayans and Aztecs interacted with howlers. Also, members of societies from northern South America established relationships with howler monkeys before the Contact period. Among current indigenous societies, howlers are not only eaten, but also figure in mythic, sacred, and social symbologies. As large-sized atelines, howler monkeys are among the preferred primate prey for a number of cultures in the tropical Americas. However, some groups avoid them as prey. Cultural taboos on howlers as food are often linked to magical contagion whereby ingestion of howlers is believed to pass on their undesirable traits, such as lethargy. In addition, due to other behavioral features, such as vocalizations and ideas of human similarity, howler monkeys are common characters in the cosmologies of contemporary indigenous societies. For example, in native mythologies of lowland South America, the creation of howlers is often related to human body transformation. Thus, it can be argued that howler monkeys are/were subjects of different social representations among the native societies of the Neotropics.
