Epps and Salanova: The Languages of Amazonia ARTICLE The Languages of Amazonia Patience Epps University of Texas at Austin Andrés Pablo Salanova University of Ottawa Introduction Amazonia is a linguistic treasure-trove. In this region, defined roughly as the area of the Amazon and Orinoco basins, the diversity of languages is immense, with some 300 indigenous languages corresponding to over 50 distinct ‘genealogical’ units (see Rodrigues 2000) – language families or language isolates for which no relationship to any other has yet been conclusively demonstrated; as distinct, for example, as Japanese and Spanish, or German and Basque (see section 12 below). Yet our knowledge of these languages has long been minimal, so much so that the region was described only a decade ago as a “linguistic black box" (Grinevald 1998:127). -

Modes of Dispossession of Indigenous Lands and Territories in Africa
Modes of Dispossession of Indigenous Lands and Territories in Africa Elifuraha I. Laltaika1 and Kelly M. Askew2 I. Background and context3 The 2003 Report of Working Group on Indigenous Populations/Communities (WGIP) of the African Commission on Human and Peoples’ Rights (ACHPR) recognized the existence of multiple indigenous peoples in Africa primarily consisting of pastoralists (e.g., Pokot, Maasai, Barbaig, Karamajong, Samburu, Turkana, Afar, Borana, Tuareg, and Fulani) and hunter-gatherers (e.g., Batwa, Hadzabe, Ogiek and San). These peoples require access to land and water resources in their ancestral territories to pursue their legally protected ways of life per the 2007 UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP). However, powerful transnational corporations and conservation organizations—both typically aligned with local political and economic elites—were already identified in the 2003 WGIP report as a threat to indigenous lands, resources and livelihoods: Dispossession of land and natural resources is a major human rights problem for indigenous peoples. They have in so many cases been pushed out of their traditional areas to give way for the economic interests of other more dominant groups and to large scale development initiatives that tend to destroy their lives and cultures rather than improve their situation. Establishment of protected areas and national parks have impoverished indigenous pastoralist and hunter-gatherer communities, made them vulnerable and unable to cope with environmental uncertainty and in many cases even displaced them. Large-scale extraction of natural resources such as logging, mining, dam construction, oil drilling and pipeline construction have had very negative impacts on the livelihoods of indigenous pastoralist and hunter-gatherer communities in Africa. -

Jenny Reddish1 Labrets: Piercing and Stretching on the Northwest Coast and in Amazonia
Jenny Reddish1 LABRETS: PIERCING AND STRETCHING ON THE NORTHWEST COAST AND IN AMAZONIA Abstract This article examines the practice of piercing and stretching the lip in order to accommodate a labret in two regions: the North American Northwest Coast (with historical examples from Tlingit groups) and lowland South America (utilizing ethnographic writings on Suya and Kayapo communities). Drawing on the recent ‘sensorial turn’ within anthropology, I suggest an approach which goes beyond considerations of the symbolism of body ornaments and analyses how the infliction of pain they involve can be manipulated to serve processes of social maturation and instil values such as the importance of flamboyant oratory. Labrets are seen here as efficacious devices for producing different kinds of social bodies. Keywords: body ornaments; Northwest Coast; Suya; Kayapo; Tlingit; sensorial anthropology. ADORNOS LABIALES: PERFORACIÓN Y ESTIRAMIENTO EN LA COSTA NOROESTE Y EN LA AMAZONIA Resumen Este artículo examina la práctica de perforar y estirar el labio con el fin de acomodar un adorno labial en dos regiones: la Costa Noroeste de Norteamérica (con ejemplos históricos de los grupos tlingit) y las tierras bajas de Suramérica (utilizando etnografías de los suya y kayapó). Con base en el reciente “giro sensorial” en antropología, se propone una aproximación que va más allá de las consideraciones simbólicas de los ornamentos corporales y analiza cómo el dolor causado por esos ornamentos puede ser manipulado para servir a procesos de maduración social e impartir valores tales como la importancia de la oratoria fastuosa. Los adornos labiales son vistos aquí como artefactos eficaces para producir diferentes clases de cuerpos sociales. -

Palikur, Pa'ikwaki, Arawak (Capiberibe) 1.2 ISO Code
1. Description 1.1 Name of society, language, and language family: Palikur, Pa’ikwaki, Arawak (Capiberibe) 1.2 ISO code (3 letter code from ethnologue.com): Plu (Lewis) 1.3 Location (latitude/longitude): Latitude: 3.0degrees North – 3.45; Longitude: 51 degrees West (Dryer) Occupy the Northern part of Brazil along the border with French Guiana, this is part of the Uaca Indigenous Area I and II (Capiberibe) and have a population of 500 inside of French Guiana (Lewis) 1.4 Brief history: Large webbing of clans including about eighteen clans in all were present at the height of their population, seven or eight remain today. Each of the clans was said to have their own language; however, there was one overall language that would be seen in today’s linguistically sense as the formal language for their family. This universal language was called the Kiaptunka which directly means in Pa’ikwene “the language of respect.” In this time period, this language was mainly used by the village chiefs during ceremonies and meetings. (It is still being used today by shamans in certain song performances at dance and cashiri-drinking events). (\) In early 16th century (early 1500s), is when the first contact is thought to have been made with the Palikur by Vicente Yanez Pinzon. He originally said he found the land of the “Paricura.” (EVERYCULTURE.COM MAKE CITATION) They moved from the original surroundings at the mouth of the Amazon further into French Guiana but maintained the idea of their “home land” being the Aukwa, which encompassed the area between and around the Cassipore Rivers and the Urucaua.
