“Some of the South American natives cut the lobes of their ears, and
for a considerable time fastened small weights to them, in order to
lengthen them; that others cut holes in their upper and under lips;
through the cartilage of the nose, their chins and jaws, and either
hung or thrust through them, such things as they most fancied, which
also agrees with the ancient customs of our Northern Indians.”

“En d’autres endroits de l’Amérique, quelques Nations se percent le
nez, entre les deux narines, d’où ils font dépendre quelques joli
vetez; ... et d’autres sur leurs lèvres pendantes et renversées, et
tout cela pour contenter leurs yeux, et pour trouver le point de la
beauté.” _Jesuit Relation_, 1658, p. 30.
