  • 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.

The mothers, compa- red to the fathers, are nothing more than containers in whom the child is bred, and for this reason the fathers’ children, even when mothered by slaves or cap- tive enemies, are always free and as respected as the others. But the children of the females that are the children of captive enemies are kept as slaves or sold; sometimes they kill them and eat them, even if they are their grandchildren, their daughters’ offspring. For the same reason they unashamedly use their daughters’ daughters for copulation, without any obligation or general custom to take them as wives, as is the case with the others, as it is said …” José de Anchieta “Information on marriage among the Indians of Brazil” Modern Brazilian anthropologists are, obviously, aware than kinship is one of the most important aspects of social organisation, notably in so-called sim- ple societies where it is one of the basic principles on which all social life de- pends.

  • Brazilian Indigenous People's Struggle for an Intercultural, Specific
    Creative Education, 2016, 7, 13-19 Published Online January 2016 in SciRes. http://www.scirp.org/journal/ce http://dx.doi.org/10.4236/ce.2016.71002 Brazilian Indigenous People’s Struggle for an Intercultural, Specific, Differentiated School José Licínio Backes PPGE, UCDB, Campo Grande, Brasil Received 15 September 2015; accepted 11 January 2016; published 14 January 2016 Copyright © 2016 by author and Scientific Research Publishing Inc. This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution International License (CC BY). http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Abstract This paper analyzes the Indigenous people’s struggle for an intercultural, specific, differentiated school intended for the valorization of their culture and identity. Aiming to catechize and adapt Indigenous peoples to the western culture, settlers introduced school education as a means to make the Indians give up their identities and integrate them into the national culture. This paper evidences that the Indians have opposed the colonial school right from the start, and by means of struggle and organization, they obtained the right to an intercultural, specific, differentiated Indi- genous school. However, obtaining this right had not put an end to their struggle, as the end of co- lonial school did not mean the end of coloniality. Keywords Indigenous School, Coloniality, Identity 1. Introduction The struggle for a school oriented towards cultural diversity by questioning the school that values the hegemonic culture has characterized the last decades in Brazil. In this struggle, the Indigenous movements have stood out in the construction of an intercultural, specific, differentiated school concerned with both the valorization of their culture and the affirmation of their identities.

  • Indigeneity on Display: Ethnographic Adventure Film in Amazonia
    Indigeneity on Display: Ethnographic Adventure Film in Amazonia Jeffrey N. Attridge Thesis submitted to the faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts In Material Culture and Public Humanities Aaron Ansell David P. Cline LaDale C. Winling April 28, 2017 Blacksburg, Virginia Keywords: Cultural Anthropology, Latin American Studies, Visual Anthropology, Museum Studies Indigeneity on Display: Ethnographic Adventure Film in Amazonia Jeffrey N. Attridge ABSTRACT This paper seeks to explore the early twentieth century trend of ethnographic adventure filmmaking. A subgenre of the ethnographic film, these works blended ethnographic observations with scripted and staged adventure stories, advancing popular tropes of indigenous first contact and the superiority of Western civilization. Focusing on a 1931 expedition to the Amazon which resulted in the creation of the first sync-sound ethnographic adventure film, titled Matto Grosso: The Great Brazilian Wilderness, I argue that despite flaws in its conception, production, and media coverage, this film serves as an example of how non-academic sources of knowledge production can still create important primary documents for indigenous source communities.

Arawak languages are spoken in lowland Amazonia and beyond, covering French Guiana, Suriname, Guiana, Venezuela, Colombia, Peru, Brazil, and Bolivia, and formerly in Paraguay and Argentina. Wayuunaiki (or Guajiro), spoken in the region of the Guajiro peninsula in Venezuela and Colombia, is the largest language of the family. Garifuna is the only Arawak language spoken in Belize, Honduras, Nicaragua, and Guatemala in Central America. Groups of Arawak speakers must have migrated from the Caribbean coast to the Antilles a few hundred years before the European conquest. At least several dozen Arawak languages have become extinct since the European conquest. The highest number of recorded Arawak languages is centered in the region between the Rio Negro and the Orinoco.

    NOT ALL IN ONE RHYTHM: A CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF THE MEDIA DISCOURSE AGAINST THE INDIGENOUS RE-EXISTENCE OF THE MARAKÁ’NÀ VILLAGE IN KÛÁNÃPARÁ by Alexandre Cursino A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Graduate Department of Leadership, Higher and Adult Education Ontario Institute for Studies in Education University of Toronto © Copyright by Alexandre Cursino 2016 NOT ALL IN ONE RHYTHM: A CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF THE MEDIA DISCOURSE AGAINST THE INDIGENOUS RE-EXISTENCE OF THE MARAKÁ’NÀ VILLAGE IN KÛÁNÃPARÁ Master of Arts 2016 Alexandre Cursino Department of Leadership, Higher and Adult Education University of Toronto Abstract Indigenous people created the re-existence known as Maraká’nà village, by re-occupying the sacred territory of a building in Kûánãpará (Rio de Janeiro) located next to the popular Maracanã stadium. The village became a meeting place for re-existences that encompass issues of Indigenous sovereignty, sacred land right, spirituality practices, decolonizing education, and the creation of the first Intercultural Indigenous University in Pindorama. It challenged the economic and social impacts of the neoliberal sports mega-events, which raised tensions during the organization of sports mega-events. These tensions were amplified through media discourse, by perpetuating violent treatment of Indigenous peoples, and naturalizing the dominant elite. Employing a transdisciplinary methodology that combines Critical Discourse Analysis and Critical Political Economy, this study examines the media discourse that obstructs the Indigenous re-existence of Maraká’nà by favoring capitalist structures. Despite demonstrating unbalanced power relations, the findings show unbalanced power relations Maraká'nà and media discourses.
