Abstract
Based on the Toba Indians' interpretation of the Pleiades (Dapíchi), the Moon (Áwo Goik), and the Milky Way (Mánik, Nágaik or Lakawáhegem), we postulate a fluid and constant interaction between the sky and everyday life. Therefore, the change and continuity in their lifestyle may also be traced in the interpretations of the celestial space.
