Popis: This contribution proposes to analyse the ritual artefacts produced among the Otomi of the Eastern Sierra Madre from a relational perspective. Even before being the offerings and supports of invisible entities, in fact, the materials produced during the performances have the function of tying together a heterogeneous collective of agents involved in a shared action on the world. Materiality appears, in this light, as the connecting element, the necessary mediator, so that human and non-human agentivities can realise together the reactivation of life cycles.
