description The dissemination of economically secondary plant species currently barely catches the attention of ethnobotanists. The two plants we selected, Abelmoschus moschatus and Zingiber zerumbet, present marked contrasts. The first, widely disseminated, was integrated by Amazonian populations together with most of its original uses, whereas the second, with more localised uses, underwent important innovations. Based on the pretext of the circumstances of their “rediscovery” by the Wayãpi Indians, we recount their “natural history”.
