LÍNGUAS INDÍGENAS BRASILEIRAS Aryon Dall’Igna Rodrigues Laboratório de Línguas Indígenas Universidade de Brasília As línguas naturais são não apenas instrumentos de comunicação social, mas também os meios de que dispõem os seres humanos para elaborar, codificar e conservar seu conhecimento do mundo. Cada língua está intimamente ligada aos processos cognitivos e à experiência acumulada pelo povo que a fala através de sucessivas gerações. As descobertas que, elaboradas e reelaboradas pela inteligência ao longo de milênios, formaram o imenso acervo de conhecimentos integrados que é a cultura, têm sua expressão mais ampla e mais precisa na língua que se desenvolveu como parte e como instrumento dessa cultura. Tudo o que hoje os antropólogos vêm descobrindo junto aos povos indígenas, em matéria de ciência nativa, como etnobiologia, etnomatemática, etnoastronomia, em resumo como etnociência, só se torna realmente acessível ao pesquisador através da língua indígena. Perdida a língua de forma abrupta, sob pressão de outro povo que tenta impor outra cultura, perde-se a maior parte daquele conhecimento pela destruição do sistema de referência que o mantinha integrado e operante. Em geral, a cada língua indígena desaparecida corresponde um complexo cognitivo rico em especificidades que se perde para o povo afetado e para todo o gênero humano.

  • The Hispanization of Chamacoco Syntax
    DOI: 10.26346/1120-2726-170 The hispanization of Chamacoco syntax Luca Ciucci Language and Culture Research Centre, James Cook University, Australia <[email protected]> This paper investigates contact-driven syntactic change in Chamacoco (a.k.a. Ɨshɨr ahwoso), a Zamucoan language with about 2,000 speakers in Paraguay. Chamacoco syntax was originally characterized by a low number of conjunc- tions, like its cognate Ayoreo. Although Chamacoco shows transfers from other neighboring languages, a turning point in language change was the beginning of regular contacts with Western society around the year 1885. Since then, Spanish has exerted a growing influence on Chamacoco, affecting all levels of linguistic analysis. Most speakers are today Chamacoco-Spanish bilingual, and the lan- guage is endangered. Chamacoco has borrowed some conjunctions from Spanish, and new clause combining strategies have replaced older syntactic structures. Other function words introduced from Spanish include temporal adverbs, dis- course markers, quantifiers and prepositions. I discuss their uses, the reasons for their borrowing and their interaction with original Chamacoco function words. Some borrowed function words can combine with autochthonous conjunctions to create new subordinators that are calques from Spanish compound subor- dinating conjunctions. This resulted in remarkable syntactic complexification. Chamacoco comparatives, modeled on the Spanish ones, are also likely instances of contact-induced complexification, since there are reasons to surmise that Chamacoco originally lacked dedicated comparative structures. Keywords: Chamacoco, clause combining, comparatives, coordination, function words, language contact, South American Indigenous languages, subordination, syntax, Zamucoan. 1. Introduction This study analyzes the influence exerted by Spanish on the syntax of Chamacoco, a Zamucoan language of northern Paraguay.

  • The “Person” Category in the Zamuco Languages. a Diachronic Perspective
    On rare typological features of the Zamucoan languages, in the framework of the Chaco linguistic area Pier Marco Bertinetto Luca Ciucci Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa The Zamucoan family Ayoreo ca. 4500 speakers Old Zamuco (a.k.a. Ancient Zamuco) spoken in the XVIII century, extinct Chamacoco (Ɨbɨtoso, Tomarâho) ca. 1800 speakers The Zamucoan family The first stable contact with Zamucoan populations took place in the early 18th century in the reduction of San Ignacio de Samuco. The Jesuit Ignace Chomé wrote a grammar of Old Zamuco (Arte de la lengua zamuca). The Chamacoco established friendly relationships by the end of the 19th century. The Ayoreos surrended rather late (towards the middle of the last century); there are still a few nomadic small bands in Northern Paraguay. The Zamucoan family Main typological features -Fusional structure -Word order features: - SVO - Genitive+Noun - Noun + Adjective Zamucoan typologically rare features Nominal tripartition Radical tenselessness Nominal aspect Affix order in Chamacoco 3 plural Gender + classifiers 1 person ø-marking in Ayoreo realis Traces of conjunct / disjunct system in Old Zamuco Greater plural and clusivity Para-hypotaxis Nominal tripartition Radical tenselessness Nominal aspect Affix order in Chamacoco 3 plural Gender + classifiers 1 person ø-marking in Ayoreo realis Traces of conjunct / disjunct system in Old Zamuco Greater plural and clusivity Para-hypotaxis Nominal tripartition All Zamucoan languages present a morphological tripartition in their nominals.

  • Possessive Inflection in Proto-Zamucoan a Reconstruction
    Possessive inflection in Proto-Zamucoan A reconstruction Luca Ciucci and Pier Marco Bertinetto Scuola Normale Superiore, Pisa This paper presents a comparative analysis of possessive inflection in the three known Zamucoan languages: Ayoreo and Chamacoco – still spoken in the Chaco area between Bolivia and Paraguay – plus †Old Zamuco, described by the Jesuit father Ignace Chomé in the first half of the 18th century. The comparison allows us to build a plausible reconstruction of Proto-Zamucoan possessive in- flection. Old Zamuco appears to be the most conservative language among the three, while Chamacoco appears to be the most innovative, although it exhibits relics of special importance for reconstructive purposes. Our analysis identifies in Zamucoan a series of features of general interest for the typology of person marking. Keywords: person marking, diachronic reconstruction, possessive morphology, verb morphology, Zamucoan languages, kinship terms, syncretism in person/ number marking, Chaco region 1. Introduction 1 This paper proposes a reconstruction of the possessive morphology of Zamucoan, an underdescribed language family spoken in the Chaco region, between Bolivia and Paraguay. The family consists of three documented languages: Ayoreo, Chamacoco 1. This paper is largely based on the comparative analysis of Ciucci (2016) [2013]. The authors share responsibility for any claims made. The Ayoreo and Chamacoco examples are offered in phonemic transcription (with no delimiting slashes) for ease of reading. The transcriptions of Old Zamuco are based on Chomé (1958 [ante 1745]) as reinterpreted according to our knowledge of Ayoreo and Chamacoco phonology (for a discussion, see Bertinetto 2014 [2009] and Ciucci 2016 [2013]). In the few cases of uncertain interpretation, we added Chomé’s transcription between angled brackets.

TRIBES OF EASTERN BOLIVIA AND THE MADEIRA HEADWATERS By Alfred Metraux THE CHIQUITOANS AND OTHER TRIBES OF THE PROVINCE OF CHIQUITOS TRIBAL DIVISIONS AND LANGUAGES It is extremely difficult to obtain a clear picture of the linguistic affili- ations or even of the exact locations of the tribes of the region known as the Province of Chiquitos, bordered on the south by the Chaco desert, on the east by the Paraguay River and by the marshes of its upper course, on the west by the Rio Grande (Guapay River), and on the north by a line more or less corresponding to lat. 15° W. (map 1, No. 2 ; map 4). The chronicles of the Conquest, the official documents and reports of local authorities, and later the letters and accounts of the Jesuits teem with names of tribes and subtribes, but seldom mention their linguistic affiliation and even their location. From the beginning of the Conquest, the Indians of the area just defined have been called Chiquito, "the small ones," irrespective of their linguistic family or culture.

  • An Introduction to Three Nambikwara Ethnohistories
    An Introduction To Three Nambikwara Ethnohistories January, 2019: Edwin B. Reesink – Allegories of Wildness – Three Nambikwara ethnohistories of sociocultural and linguistic change and continuity –Rozenberg Publishers – ISBN 978 90 3610 173 8 – 2010 – will be online soon. International fame for the Nambikwara came from the central role they play in the work of the late Claude Lévi-Strauss. In his most popular book, Tristes Tropiques, over fifty years ago, he already had painted a particular picture of the Nambikwara way of life. Until the end of his long life this great scholar reminisced about his formative years in anthropology and the influence of the several Indian peoples he encountered during his travels in the interior of Brazil. In effect, the Nambikwara, as seen in the quote, occupy a special place, one not just of scientific interest but particularly one of a sympathy and feeling sometimes not readily associated with this anthropologist. At the time of the travels by Lévi- Strauss and the other people of his expedition, the dry season of 1938, the Nambikwara happened to be in an intermediate phase of their history: enjoying their political autonomy yet already shaped and devastated by the encroachment of Brazilian society. The sparse, intermediate but regular contacts with Brazilians made them susceptible to being devastated yet further by epidemics. Previously, from 1907 onward, the Brazilians by means of the so-called Rondon Mission penetrated into the vast territories in which lived a large number of different local groups who each considered themselves to be different from their neighbours. Rondon, the State and later researchers recognized this diversity but ultimately still tended to maintain the idea of “one Nambikwara people”.

  • Alto Solimões. Marco Jurídico-Institucional, Medidas Mitigatórias E Estratégia De Participação E Desenvolvimento Para Os Povos Indígenas
    PZFV – Alto Solimões. Marco jurídico-institucional, medidas mitigatórias e estratégia de participação e desenvolvimento para os povos indígenas. (IPP - Bird OD 4.20) Resumo executivo1: 1. Caracterização socioeconômica e jurídico-fundiária: A Meso-Região Alto Solimões informa uma notável complexidade socioambiental, com destacável concentração de populações indígenas. É o ambiente da presença imemorial de 11 dos 66 grupos étnicos do Estado do Amazonas, que no conjunto somam 40.000 pessoas ou 46% da população indígena do Estado do Amazonas. Seis etnias são numericamente mais expressivas: Ticuna, Kokama, Marubo, Matsé, Kaixana e Kanamari. (vide quadro dos grupos étnicos no Estado do Amazonas com destaque para o Alto Solimões – anexo 01). Destacável é que a região abriga o maior grupo indígena no País - os Ticuna - com população de 32.832 pessoas. Importante considerar que pelo menos outros 5.000 Ticuna, embora usufruam de serviços básicos de saúde, da assistência geral e estabeleçam parte das suas relações sociais na região do Alto Solimões, estendem seu habitat para outros municípios circunvizinhos, como também, para além fronteiras Amazonas/Acre e Brasil/Peru/Colômbia Segundo o Sistema de Informações de Assistência em Saúde Indígena (SIASI), operado pela FUNASA (gestão dos serviços das equipes de saúde da família dos DSEI Vale do Javari e DSEI Alto Solimões), em 2006 foram cadastrados 31.610 indígenas clientes dos serviços de saúde, distribuídos por cerca de 150 aldeias e núcleos comunitários. No geral os grupos indígenas representam 23% da população regional, se considerada a população cadastrada no serviço de saúde – DSEI/FUNASA, 28%, se considerado o total da população Ticuna que habita a região e os “isolados”.2 Segundo o Governo Brasileiro (Ministério da Justiça - FUNAI – Departamento de Índios Isolados), são reconhecidas referências de pelo menos 07 grupos isolados na região, com uma população projetada para cerca de 1.250 pessoas.

    IPP264 Paraguay Community Development Project Indigenous Peoples Development Framework Introduction Public Disclosure Authorized 1. Indigenous Peoples (IP) in Paraguay represent only 1.7% of the total population (about 87,100) people, according to the most recent Indigenous Peoples Census (2002). Notwithstanding, IP, show a higher population growth rate (3.9%) than the average for the national population (2.7%). Therefore, it is possible to expect that the proportion of IP will continue to grow for some time, even though they will continue to be a small proportion of the total population. 2. There are 19 different ethnic groups1 belonging to five linguistic families2, being the most numerous those belonging to the Guarari linguistic family3 (46,000 or 53%), followed by the Maskoy linguistic family groups4 (21,000 or 24%). The four largest IP groups are the Ava-Guarani (13,400 or 15.5%), Mbyá (14,300 or 16.7%), Pâí Tavyterâ (13,100 or 15.2%), and the Nivacle (12,000 or 13.9%). Most indigenous peoples speak Public Disclosure Authorized their own language and have a limited command of Spanish.

  • 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).
