Caiapó Do Sul, an Ethnohistory (1610–1920) CAIAPÓ DO SUL, AN ETHNOHISTORY (1610–1920) By DAVID LOUIS MEAD A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2010 1 © 2010 David Louis Mead 2 To Kendall and Kiefer 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Dissertations have their conventions: the introduction, the bibliographic review, the chapters of dense, tedious, and often turgid text, the conclusions, and the bibliography. It all begins, of course, with the acknowledgements and, unfortunately, this dissertation is no different. I have tried to write an exciting and interesting history (and the history of the Caiapó is exciting and interesting), but I have, in many ways, produced yet another conventional dissertation that shall generate little interest, have few readers, and gather much dust. So I embrace the conventions and begin with the acknowledgements, then move on to the introduction, the bibliographic review, etc. And, so it goes. Because research is impossible without money, I begin with funding. The Center for Latin American Studies at the University of Florida generously funded my academic career with two summer Foreign Language and Areas Studies Fellowships, two yearlong Foreign Language and Area Studies Fellowships, as well as a Tinker Travel Grant in 2002, and a Charles Wagley Research Fellowship in 2003. A Fulbright-Hayes Doctoral Dissertation Research Fellowship made possible a year of archival research in Brazil in 2005. I never imagined that I would be so lucky to earn so many prestigious grants and awards as I have in my graduate career. Many people inspired and supported my academic career at the University of Florida. There is Michael J. Heckenberger. He took me to work in the Xingú and introduced me to Brazil. Michael E. Moseley inspired me as an undergraduate—his classes on the Andes ultimately led to my graduate studies; much to my parents‘ dismay—and he continued to inspire me as a graduate student. It is one of the great pleasures of my life to have known him, conversed with him on so many occasions. Jeffery Needell showed me what the phrase ―a scholar and a gentleman‖ means. His 4 knowledge, forthrightness, and professionalism served as a guiding light during some truly dark hours in my life. I can only hope someday to be as professional and personable as he. I doubt he will ever really know what one particular phone call meant to me. John Moore, without hesitation, stepped onto my doctoral committee on short notice. Charles Perrone, of the Department of Romance Languages, aided me with some difficult translations of archaic Portuguese. Christian Russell provided me with a place to stay and made me feel at home. Outside of the University of Florida, many special thanks must be offered to Mary Karasch. She kindly read this entire dissertation and offered perceptive criticism and commentary. Her efforts produced a much better study. Stephen Schwartzman told me about collections of Caiapó artifacts and wordlists that exist in Europe. There are many to whom I owe thanks in Brazil, which has become my second home. I begin with Carlos Fausto. I first met Carlos in the Xingú, and he impressed me immensely with his vast knowledge of Brazilian ethnography (as well as his ability to learn Kuikuru, a language I found difficult and perplexing). He sponsored my 2005 doctoral research in Brazil, for which I thank him. I worked in numerous archives throughout Brazil in my hunt for documents relating to the Southern Caiapó. I must thank all of the archival staffs that tolerated my badgering for documents and copies. In Rio de Janeiro, I especially want to thank the staffs at Arquivo Nacional, the Biblioteca Nacional, Instituto Histórigrafico and Geográfico Brasileiro (a magnificent place to conduct research), and the Arquivo Histórico do Exército. In Goiás, I wish to thank the staff at the Museu das Bandeiras. This was, from an architectural and historical perspective, a most interesting of archive: the building was the old jail, and I have often 5 wondered if Manoel da Cunha met his end there, perhaps in the very room where I sat scribbling notes. At the Arquivo Histórico Estadual de Goiânia, I would particularly like to thank Maria Carmen Lisita and Sávia Barros Diniz. Carmen and Sávia opened their archive, offered their friendship, and made me feel extremely welcome. My stay in Goiânia was perhaps the most profitable in terms of volume of documents recovered. After Goiânia, I went to Ouro Preto, chasing down references to the Caiapó at the Abelhas River, and the staff at the Casa dos Contos welcomed me but, as they warned me, everything was in Belo Horizonte. Nonetheless, I spent two weeks in Ouro Preto, enjoying the spectacular vermillion sunsets, stunning churches, and, best of all, drinking Mineiro cachaça. Belo Horizonte followed. The staff at the Arquivo Público Mineiro helped me track down references to the Caiapó in their massive holdings. Along the way, I discovered Belo Horizonte is a marvelous city. Cuiabá gets its own paragraph, as I had my most enjoyable experiences there. Before I left Rio for Cuiabá, numerous people told me how hot the city would be, how lonely I would be, and how tiresome living in the interior would become. It was not so. The people of Cuiabá are known for their hospitality, and the reputation is well deserved. At the Arquivo Público de Mato Grosso, the archive director, Eliane Fernandes, and her colleagues, especially Carlos Gonçalves and Luzinete Correa, embraced my research and aided in finding many interesting documents. I would especially like to thank Vanda da Silva, also of the archive staff, who went out of her way to find a valuable reference in another (then closed) archive. Vanda was, and is, a great friend, whose help was more appreciated than she knows. I also wish to thank Nauk Maria Jesus, an incredible scholar with an encyclopedic knowledge of the history 6 of Mato Grosso, for her assistance and friendship. My (then) fellow UF graduate student Luís Symanski was in Cuiabá while I was there and deserves thanks for his companionship. I would lack many unforgettable memories without the friendship of Vanda, Nauk, and Luís. Finally, I must say something about Kendall Campbell, my friend, companion, and spouse. She suffered through many of my graduate papers, numerous drafts of this dissertation, and graciously listened as I bloviated endlessly about the Caiapó, Brazil, and whatever other subject caught my fancy. Kendall accompanied me around Brazil, trekking from Goiânia to Ouro Preto and down to Rio de Janeiro; she helped me lug suitcases of documents and books, laughed at me when I bought more books, and made life all the more enjoyable. She had fun too—at least, so she claims. I know not how she survived my blathering, diatribes, and, lately, typos. I never would have finished this dissertation without her strength and support. And, most importantly of all, she gave me my son. 7 TABLE OF CONTENTS page ACKNOWLEDGMENTS .................................................................................................. 4 LIST OF TABLES .......................................................................................................... 11 LIST OF FIGURES ........................................................................................................ 12 LIST OF ABBREVIATIONS ........................................................................................... 13 ABSTRACT ................................................................................................................... 14 CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION .................................................................................................... 16 The Kreen-Akrore ................................................................................................... 16 From Kreen-Akrore to Panará ................................................................................. 26 From Panará to Caiapó........................................................................................... 32 From Caiapó to Kreen-Akrore ................................................................................. 38 A Brief Historiography ............................................................................................. 42 Conclusion .............................................................................................................. 49 2 THE EARLY CAIAPÓ-COLONIAL CONTACT (1590–1720) ................................... 61 Introduction ............................................................................................................. 61 Ibirajara and Bilreiros .............................................................................................. 64 The Ibirajara ..................................................................................................... 67 The Bilreiros ..................................................................................................... 71 The Ibirajara, Bilreiros, and Caiapó: Analysis ......................................................... 77 Conclusion .............................................................................................................. 85 3 TERRITORY, VILLAGES, WAR, AND CAPTIVES ................................................. 90 Introduction ............................................................................................................. 90 Caiapó Territory and Colonial Image .....................................................................

The "Travelling" of the Players. 229 Appendix II.— Some Passages from the Quarto of 1603 231 Appendix III. Addenda 235 INTRODUCTION This edition of Hamlet aims in the first place at giving a trustworthy text. Secondly, it attempts to exhibit the variations from that text which are found in the primary sources—the Quarto of 1604 and the Folio of 1623 — in so far as those variations are of importance towards the ascertainment of the text. Every variation is not recorded, but I have chosen to err on the side of excess rather than on that of defect. Readings from the Quarto of 1603 are occa- sionally given, and also from the later Quartos and Folios, but to record such readings is not a part of the design of this edition. 1 The letter Q means Quarto 604 ; F means Folio 1623. The dates of the later Quartos are as follows: —Q 3, 1605 161 1 undated 6, For ; Q 4, ; Q 5, ; Q 1637. my few references to these later Quartos I have trusted the Cambridge Shakespeare and Furness's edition of Hamlet. Thirdly, it gives explanatory notes. Here it is inevitable that my task should in the main be that of selection and condensation. But, gleaning after the gleaners, I have perhaps brought together a slender sheaf.

  • Indian Warriors: from Warclub to Paper
    INDIAN WARRIORS: FROM WARCLUB TO PAPER Geraldo Mosimann da Silva e Simone F. de Athayde http://www.socioambiental.org/website/parabolicas/english/backissu/47/articles/pg5.htm On October 31 last, Kaiabi leaders surprised eight fishermen in the Arraias river, in the Northwest part of the Xingu Indigenous Park (PIX), in Mato Grosso. The Indians lost their patience, apprehended the invaders, and took them to the Diauarum Indigenous Station. That was the start of the Fishermen’s War, which entailed political, social and ethnical conquests. It also means the Kaiabi warriors with fishermen massive presence of warriors from the on release day. Northern peoples of the Park, besides Simone F. de Athayde / ISA leaders of Southern ethnicities who live in the South, and linked to the so-called Upper Xingu Cultural Complex. The episode intensified the feeling of identity of 1,000 Kaiabi, Yudja and Suya Indians who live North of the PIX. This ethnical revitalization process is linked to the strengthening of the Xingu Indigenous Land Association (ATIX) as a representative body of the Xingu peoples for interlocution with non-Indians. Created in 1995, ATIX counts on a political council made of members from 12 ethnicities among the 14 existing in the PIX. In the daily conversations which beaconed their negotiations with FUNAI, the Indians debated the Park’s territory management ad nauseam. It was an exercise of warring strength and ethnical price, punctuated by singing and dancing, where body painting, dressing, adornments, headdresses and warclubs were the rule. Women also surprised: normally relegated to political passivity, they participated with vehement manifestations for the defense of the Park limits.

  • Bows and Arrows in Central Brazil
    ANNUAL REPORT OF THE BOARD OF REGENTS OF THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION SHOWING THE OPERATIONS, EXPENDITURES, AND CONDITION OF THE INSTITUTION TO JULY, 18 9 6 WASHINGTON: GOVERNMENT PRINTING OFFICE. 1898. Biblioteca Digital Curt Nimuendajú http://www.etnolinguistica.org BOWS AND AEEOWS IN CENTRAL BRAZIL. 1 By Hermann Meyer. The present treatise is an introduction to a larger one now in course of preparation. While this larger work is to discuss the distribution of the bow and arrow throughout South America, and to widen the knowledge of her mixed populations by means of a thorough investi- gation of material in museums and the study of literature, it is the aim of this brochure to point out the system only in general outline, with the comparison of the materials furnished for the classification of bow and arrow, and to set forth for a circumscribed region—the Mato Grosso—how, through the harmonizing of different tribal groups, ethnographic types arise; what share the several associated tribes have had in this creation of groups; and, on the other hand, what ethnographic development within the group each tribe has undergone. It will not be possible to make an extended review of individual tribes in a preliminary description of the bow and the arrow. This is in view for the later work, and at this time it will be presented only so far as an ethnographic characterization is necessary. In the same way here the review will be only so extended concerning the meaning' of these weapons for a tribe as to reveal some variation of the arts by which an advancing or retarding momentum in the ethnographic development has been given.

  • In Search of the Amazon: Brazil, the United States, and the Nature of A
    IN SEARCH OF THE AMAZON AMERICAN ENCOUNTERS/GLOBAL INTERACTIONS A series edited by Gilbert M. Joseph and Emily S. Rosenberg This series aims to stimulate critical perspectives and fresh interpretive frameworks for scholarship on the history of the imposing global pres- ence of the United States. Its primary concerns include the deployment and contestation of power, the construction and deconstruction of cul- tural and political borders, the fluid meanings of intercultural encoun- ters, and the complex interplay between the global and the local. American Encounters seeks to strengthen dialogue and collaboration between histo- rians of U.S. international relations and area studies specialists. The series encourages scholarship based on multiarchival historical research. At the same time, it supports a recognition of the represen- tational character of all stories about the past and promotes critical in- quiry into issues of subjectivity and narrative. In the process, American Encounters strives to understand the context in which meanings related to nations, cultures, and political economy are continually produced, chal- lenged, and reshaped.

  • Maize As Material Culture? Amazonian Theories of Persons and Things
    Miller, Maize as material culture? MAIZE AS MATERIAL CULTURE? AMAZONIAN THEORIES OF PERSONS AND THINGS THERESA MILLER Introduction: the ‘nature’ of materials in anthropological analyses As a significant sub-discipline within anthropology, material culture studies have been at the forefront of ground-breaking theories regarding the relationships between people and things. A whole genre of object biographies have been produced, based on Kopytoff’s (1986) article on the ‘social life of things’ (cf. Saunders 1999, Thomas 1999, Harrison 2003). Daniel Miller’s (1987) interpretation of Hegel’s dialectical materialism led to a serious discussion of how people and objects mutually reinforce and create each other. While Kopytoff’s theory has been widely criticized for its passive, semiotic approach (Thomas 1999, Holtorf 2002), Miller’s notion of ‘materiality’ (1987, 2010) moved away from the meanings of objects to focus on how they act within the field of social relations. As more anthropologists and archaeologists engage with material culture studies, however, the assumptions on which this sub-field have been based are being called into question. Rival’s edited volume (1998) includes ethnographic accounts attempting to reconcile the symbolic and material aspects of person ̶ thing relationships. Ingold (2007b) adopts a more radical view, bypassing a discussion of symbolism and critiquing ‘materiality’ for being an abstract category. His phenomenological approach calls for an analysis of the material substance and affects/effects of things. Instead of analysing the ‘thinginess’ of things, as is the case in materiality studies, Ingold advocates an exploration of how things are ‘thingly’; that is, how they emerge in the world of both people and things (Ingold 2007b: 9).

  • Johann Natterer and the Amazonian Languages Johann Natterer E As Línguas Da Amazônia Willem F.H
    Artigos • Articles Johann Natterer and the Amazonian languages Johann Natterer e as línguas da Amazônia Willem F.H. Adelaar Hélène B. Brijnen1 Abstract Johann Natterer (1787-1843) was a member of the Austrian scientific expedition that was sent to Brazil in 1817. As a zoologist, Natterer practised taxidermy in situ and provided the Austrian court with a large collection of stuffed animals and ethnographic objects. Less known is his dedication to the collection of linguistic data. After the expedition was called back in 1822, Natterer obtained permission to stay on. He remained in Brazil until 1835 and collected language materials (Sprachproben) of 72 indigenous languages. For many of the languages concerned, Natterer’s hand-written data are either the first or the only records in existence. They are accompanied by ethnographic observations, indicating the original location of groups. In several cases, the speakers of language groups documented by Natterer have since then been removed from their original territories, if their languages were not brought to extinction. After a turbulent history, Natterer’s original language data, which for a long time remained unnoticed, are now kept at the Library of the University of Basel in Switzerland, where they have also been digitalized. Their transcription and publication is being undertaken by the authors of the present article. Keywords: Indian languages from South-America. Language samples from South-America. South-American ethnography. Indians in Amazonia. Johann Natterer. Resumo Johann Natterer (1787-1843) foi membro da expedição científica austríaca enviada para o Brasil em 1817.
