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. -

Starting from a description of the uluki exchange ceremony, we will discuss how this ritual, by mobilizing Xinguano ideas about friendship, produces contexts of interaction in which characteristics of intra-village sociality are extended to regional sociality. At the same time that the uluki defines, together with other regional rituals, a certain “Xinguano interiority” (the world of multi-community rituals), it is also one of its main forms of opening, having the potential to attract to the Xinguano world not only singular persons, but entire groups.

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). -
Esteio De Gente: Reflexões Sobre Assimetria E Parentesco a Partir De Depoimentos De Chefes Kalapalo1

Ramiro Noronha (1952), em 1920, falava em “caciques” e “capitães”, e os Bakairi já traduziam a diferença entre chefes e não chefes sob a forma da oposição capitão/camarada (certamente desde muito antes). Dos anos 1940 em diante a figura dos chefes ficou ainda mais marcada, pois eles é que se tornaram, na maioria das 1 Este artigo sintetiza parte da discussão sobre chefia que desenvolvo em minha pesquisa de doutorado, que trata de transformações políticas entre os Kalapalo a partir de uma etnografia do ritual pós mortuário da nobreza (egitsü, em karib, mas popularmente conhecido como Quarup). 2 O Alto Xingu é um complexo sociocultural pluriétnico e multilíngue formado por dez povos falantes de línguas pertencentes a diferentes troncos e famílias linguísticas, localizado na porção sul do Parque Indígena do Xingu (doravante, PIX), no nordeste do estado do Mato Grosso. -
Acting Translation Ritual and Prophetism in Twenty-First- Century Indigenous Amazonia
2014 | Hau: Journal of Ethnographic Theory 4 (2): 161–191 Acting translation Ritual and prophetism in twenty-first- century indigenous Amazonia Carlos Fausto, Museu Nacional–PPGAS Emmanuel de Vienne, Université Paris-Ouest Nanterre La Défense–CNRS; Laboratoire d’Ethnologie et de Sociologie Comparative This paper focuses on a prophetic movement led by an Amerindian from Mato Grosso, Brazil, in 2006. This man created a radically new liturgy and cosmology by combining elements borrowed from local shamanism and mythology, Christianity and TV shows, among other sources. He managed to convince entire villages to take part in spectacular healing ceremonies and gathered a huge number of followers. One of these ceremonies was extensively filmed by indigenous filmmakers, making it possible to examine the micromechanisms of this cultural innovation, and thus address with fresh data and a new approach the old issue of Amerindian prophetism. We propose here the concept of translating acts to describe this indigenous practice of transcreation, giving special attention to the multiple semiotic mediums through which it is enacted. Keywords: Amazonia, shamanism, prophetism, messianism, translation, ritual, pragmatics “He said he was an Old Christian, born in the city of Silvis, in the reign of Algarve . and, confessing, he said that about six years ago, a gentile people from the hin- terland emerged with a new sect named Santidade [Sanctity], one of them being called pope and a gentile woman Mary of God” (Furtado de Mendonça [1591–92] 1922: 35). And so confessed Fernão Cabral de Taíde before the Inquisitor Furtado de Mendonça during the First Visitation of the Holy Office in 1591. -

RES 7/SS/5 MEDICAL PROBLEM OF NfWLY-CONTACTED INDIAN GROUPS 1. Before entering on the theme of this paper, we vould like to present a few questions on the meaning of"newly- contacted indian groupaS.. a) Ts ~iat period of time should this classific ation be objectively applied? 1b)Would not a group classified as newly - contacted have Bhad direct ou indirect con- tacts previously ignored?' c) How do we define a tribe that has had one and only one rapid contact, for example eighty years ago? d) How would we classify groups of indians who, living in isolation in their own primitive environment, have had during the last sixty years rare and intermittent contacts registae ed in brief encounters? 2. Our aim in this paper is to mention facts and to report on our personal experience. We do not intend nor desire to interpret these facts and this experience. 3. On considering the deficiencies of such a studwy it is necessary to take into account the difficulties -that prevail in this enormous and primitive region lacking in means of transportation and communication where a dispersed and almost extinct population still live as in the Stone Age. ~ 4. -
Quarup: Transformações Do Ritual E Da Política No Alto Xingu*
MANA 21(2): 377-406, 2015 – DOI http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/0104-93132015v21n2p377 QUARUP: TRANSFORMAÇÕES DO RITUAL E DA POLÍTICA NO ALTO XINGU* Antonio Guerreiro Introdução Este artigo trata de transformações do ritual e da política entre os povos do complexo multiétnico e multilíngue do Alto Xingu, a partir de uma investi- gação sobre como não índios, dinheiro e mercadorias têm sido incorporados ao patrocínio de rituais mortuários. Em sua maior parte, ele se baseia na pesquisa de campo que venho desenvolvendo com os Kalapalo (falantes de língua karib), mas também utilizo informações e observações provenientes de outros grupos da região. Partindo da descrição de alguns rituais realizados nos últimos anos, discuto como sua objetivação enquanto “cultura” para os brancos 1 põe em movimento processos políticos de escala local, regional e nacional. Minha intenção é compreender como os rituais se tornaram uma dobradiça entre o mundo dos brancos e a política ritual indígena, e como isso pode afetar as formas xinguanas de produção de pessoas e coletivos. Além disso, também espero esclarecer alguns aspectos das ideias xinguanas sobre a chefia e a noção de “dono”. Nos meses de agosto e setembro, tornou-se comum ver circulando pelas redes sociais convites para os rituais mortuários realizados pelos po- vos do Alto Xingu (o famoso Quarup, no qual chefes e outras pessoas são homenageados sob a forma de efígies de madeira). Alguns têm se tornado grandes eventos, com a ampla participação de políticos e personalidades públicas, mobilizando muito dinheiro, setores do Estado, pautas nacionais e projetos de “etnodesenvolvimento”. Para os povos da região, de um modo geral, trata-se de aproveitar um momento da produção de sua socialidade para se relacionarem, de forma intencional, coletiva e (mais ou menos) controlada, com os brancos. -

State of Mato Grosso - Brazil XINGU INDIGENOUS TERRITORY September 21, 2019
State of Mato Grosso - Brazil XINGU INDIGENOUS TERRITORY September 21, 2019 LETTER OF REPUDIATION AGAINST INDIGENOUS “REPRESENTATIVE” AMONG THE BRAZILIAN GOVERNMENT DELEGATION IN THE UNITED NATIONS As representatives of the 16 indigenous peoples of the Xingu Indigenous Territory (Aweti, Matipu, Mehinako, Kamaiurá, Kuikuro, Kisedje, Ikpeng, Yudjá, Kawaiweté, Kalapalo, Narovuto, Waurá, Yawalapiti, Trumai, Nafukuá and Tapayuna peoples), we come before Brazilian society to repudiate the Brazilian Government’s intention to include the indigenous woman Ysani Kalapalo in the official Brazilian delegation to participate in the United Nations General Assembly to be held in New York City on September 24, 2019. Once again, the Brazilian government demonstrates their disrespect for Xingu's renowned indigenous peoples and leaders and other national indigenous leaders, disrespecting the autonomy of indigenous peoples' organizations to make decisions and appoint their representatives at national and international events. The Brazilian government offends the indigenous leaders of Xingu and Brazil by highlighting an indigenous woman who has been constantly working on social networks with the sole purpose of offending and demoralizing Brazil's indigenous leaders and movements. The 16 indigenous peoples of the Xingu Indigenous Territory reaffirm their right of decision autonomy through their own governance system composed of all the highest chiefs of the Xingu people. Not content with attacks on indigenous peoples, the Brazilian government now wants to legitimize its anti-indigenous policy by using an indigenous figure sympathetic to its radical ideologies with the intention of convincing the international community of its colonialist and ethnocidal policy. We do not accept and will never accept the Brazilian government appointing our indigenous representation on its own without consulting us through our recognized and supported organizations and leaders.
