It presents a preliminary report on the cultural changes of the Canelas Indians, based on data provided by Curt Nimuendajú in his monograph "The Eastern Timbira". The fundamental objective of the research was to establish the cultural changes that occurred among the Timbira since the time when Nimuendajú studied them. The report presents a description of the area, analysis of the elements of acculturation pressure, list of some of the changes that occurred and a summary including hypotheses through which the stability of the Canela culture is explained. As the research is still in a preliminary phase, some points will only be clarified with greater precision later on. In addition, the text mentions that there is a group of young people in the two villages who want to know the world outside tribal life and want to learn to write and read Portuguese. |
