Many words from the ancestors' language are derived from the root cochi - to sleep. It expresses both sleep and dream, but also lying down, dinner, subsistance, a cocoon built by caterpillars, eyelashes, leaving, yawning, making love to a woman, sleeping next to her, the place where one sleeps, waking up, pretending to sleep... Ometepe, the volcano island - Nicaragua. A landscape like a sleeping body. The Ancients describe life in two movements : one linear movement, like a walk; and one beat, emerging from the center.
