Ama̧hiri-teri is the village and people of Ya̧nomamö mythology thought to inhabit the desolate underworld, Hei tä bebi. According to Ya̧nomamö folklore they had originally inhabited the earth, Hei kä misi, but when a piece of Hedu kä misi (heaven) fell down it fell onto Ama̧hiri-teri, creating a hole and carrying the village and people through. As the only physical environment carried through was the Ama̧hiri-teri shabono (village) and gardens, the landscape is void of significant natural resources, forcing the Ama̧hiri-teri to turn to cannibalism.
