'On Coupe les Cheveux, et on donne un Nom aux Fils de L'Yncas', 1723. The hair is cut and a name is given to the son of the Incas. Naming ritual in Peru. From "Cérémonies et coutumes religieuses de tous les peuples du monde", (Religious Ceremonies and Customs of All the Peoples of the World), by Jean-Frédéric Bernard, illustrated by Bernard Picart. Although Picart never left Europe, he relied on accounts by those who had. The book 'marked a major turning point in European attitudes toward religious belief and hence the sacred'.
