  • Ein Muiraquitã (von Tupí muyrá mbyra „Baum“, „Ast“, „Holz“ und quit „Knoten“) ist ein legendäres zauberkräftiges Amulett, das aus grünem Stein (Jade oder Nephrit) gefertigt ist. Meist stellt es ein Wassertier, z. B. einen Frosch, einen Fisch oder eine Schildkröte dar, seltener einfache zylindrische Formen. Muiraquitãs galten als kostbar und wurden zwischen den Stämmen des Amazonas, des Orinoko und bis in die Karibik als Tauschmittel benutzt. (de)
