Hello,
i've found this article on the www. Link: http://www.bizarrebrazil.com/2007/04/
There's just one picture inside...wouldn't post it because it is watermarked.
Women’s party
This kind of feast is rare, and has no precise time to happen (this one happened in 1974). One day Takuman, the page (chief of the tribe*) after take care of a sick man who was almost crazy of pain and seeing monstrous women, decided that it was time to provide this special party called Yamurikuma, where only women take part. They sing, dance and fight like man. At the end of the party they all bath at the river. We could say, they become Amazonas** for one day!
