About the rite

Xavante Danhõno admits boys through a collective male initiation. Senior men guide the cohort and the community receives them with a changed status. FUNAI documented ceremonies in several Mato Grosso villages in 2022; the related Darini stage is not counted as a separate rite without evidence.
