Jacques Lizot
Jacques Lizot (11 February 1938 – 22 June 2022) was a French anthropologist and linguist. He lived among the Yanomami people in Venezuela for over 20 years, documenting their culture and language. Among his writings are the 1976 book ''The Yanomami in the Face of Ethnocide'', the 1985 book ''Tales of the Yanomami: Daily Life in the Venezuelan Forest'' and the 2004 ''Encyclopedic Dictionary of the Yanomami Language''. The 2000 book ''Darkness in El Dorado'' and the 2010 documentary film ''Secrets of the Tribe'' included allegations that Lizot had traded goods for sexual favours from young boys. Lizot denied the allegations. Provided by Wikipedia-
