Description:
The Nambicuara Collection documents, now all of them in English, cover cultural, economic and environmental information circa 1907 to 1987. The basic source, translated from French, is by Levi-Strauss. This work deals mainly with family and social life, but also covers religion, kinship and subsistence activities. Information from this source is further supplemented by a brief ethnographic description originally published in the Handbook of South American Indians and two other works which focus on specific themes including chieftainship and social use of kinship terms. Seven documents in the collection were written by anthropologists P. David Price and Paul L. Aspelin who conducted original ethnographic fieldwork among different Nambicuara groups in 1967-1976. Five of the documents in this group revisit Levi-Strauss's data and analysis of Nambicuara economic activities, political organization and leadership, while the remaining two focus on specific themes including socioeconomic change and government efforts at resettling several Nambicuara groups. The collection also includes a work, translated from Portuguese, by E. Roqueto-Pinto (based on fieldwork conducted in 1910s) that represents the first anthropological description of the Nambicuara and their culture. This book features extensive anthropometric and linguistic data on Nambicuara groups who lived along a newly built public road crossing through the region
