Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La sabiduría de los pueblos originarios que habitaron América antes de la conquista europea es rescatada desde la tradición oral que los caracterizó. Recuperar estas narraciones primigenias que se transmitieron de generación en generación, alrededor de un fuego en medio de la pradera, resguardados en la selva, mientras se iba en busca de la caza, cuando se recolectaba el alimento, a bordo de una canoa o en la cima de un cerro, es parte de la gran tarea de conocer nuestra propia identidad. La sabia cosmovisión de estos pueblos que vibraban en unidad con la naturaleza nos muestra valores que es necesario rescatar. En las páginas de este libro conoceremos a los aborígenes que respetan al Carancho (Ta ́ankí) por considerarlo el héroe civilizador por excelencia.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Also known as selk'nam, Ona Indians, together with the Y?mana, were the first settlers to Tierra del Fuego, the most southern tip of South America. This tribe had to face extremely and unceasingly cold weather. They were nomad hunters, without chieftainship (except in times of war), but with a fair territory division: each family or community had its own hunting area. Guanacos and seal skins furnished dwelling material. They stressed ceremonial body paint. This book includes, among other stories, Kenos revive a la gente, El carancho y el cormor?n, and El amigo de los indios. Profusely illustrated, this work gives a historical, social, cultural and updated account on this community, . Likewise, it includes some Thematic Project ideas.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The wichis indians lived between the Pilcomayo river and the Bermejo river, precisely in the west of Formosa, in the east of Salta and in the northeast of Chaco Province ( and also in part of the territories of Uruguay and Bolivia). The wichis were relatives of the chorotes and the churupies who lived by hunting and fishing. The wichi community ( whose descendants live in the northeast of Argentina today), has a wide repertoire of myths, legends and stories about the origin of men, women and various animals that lived in their lands. Many of these myths are similar to their neighbors ? myths, the tobas and the mocovies Indians, who were brought together by temporary fights and alliances. This book includes, among other tales, ? Underground world ?, ? Sipilah and the fish ? and ? Tokjuaj 's feats ?.

Download or read book A Naturalist in the Gran Chaco written by John Graham Kerr and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2015-04-02 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sir John Graham Kerr (1869-1957) was a Scottish zoologist and politician, well known for his work in relation to the embryology of lungfishes. Originally published in 1950, this book provides an account of Kerr's travels and discoveries within the Gran Chaco region of South America. The text is divided into two main parts: the first discusses the Pilcomayo Expedition of 1889-91, providing detailed information on the 'Natokoi or Toba Indians', together with their natural environment; the second gives an account of the 1896-7 Lepidosiren Expedition, mainly focusing on Kerr's observations of the South American lungfish. Numerous illustrative figures are also incorporated, including photographs, drawings and maps. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in the Gran Chaco region, anthropology, zoology and the history of science.

Download or read book Behold the Black Caiman written by Lucas Bessire and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2014-10-24 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2004, one of the world’s last bands of voluntarily isolated nomads left behind their ancestral life in the dwindling thorn forests of northern Paraguay, fleeing ranchers’ bulldozers. Behold the Black Caiman is Lucas Bessire’s intimate chronicle of the journey of this small group of Ayoreo people, the terrifying new world they now face, and the precarious lives they are piecing together against the backdrop of soul-collecting missionaries, humanitarian NGOs, late liberal economic policies, and the highest deforestation rate in the world. Drawing on ten years of fieldwork, Bessire highlights the stark disconnect between the desperate conditions of Ayoreo life for those out of the forest and the well-funded global efforts to preserve those Ayoreo still living in it. By showing how this disconnect reverberates within Ayoreo bodies and minds, his reflexive account takes aim at the devastating consequences of our society’s continued obsession with the primitive and raises important questions about anthropology’s potent capacity to further or impede indigenous struggles for sovereignty. The result is a timely update to the classic literary ethnographies of South America, a sustained critique of the so-called ontological turn—one of anthropology’s hottest trends—and, above all, an urgent call for scholars and activists alike to rethink their notions of difference.
