The kepam resembles in many respects the woman's garment described and figured by Marcgrav (ibid.). It is in Marcgrav (ibid.), too, that we get our earliest unmistakable record, not only in Chile but in South America, of the true poncho (fig. 73). Montell (1925; 1929, pp. 238-244) has presented strong evidence for his theory that the true poncho as distinct from the widely distributed Andean sleeve- less shirt, was a Mapuche-Huilliche invention, and has suggested that.
