Yanomamo people are much more giving, they care more for their community as a whole than themselves as individuals. They believe as a community in spirits, they seem to hold a grudge a bit longer than the average American. The ritualized drug use, almost complete self-sufficiency, and community caring really separate them from us. So while small similarities may be present, it is quite obvious that the Yanomamo culture is very unlike our culture overall.
