The research analyzes the article “Os Tapajó”, by Curt Nimuendajú (1883-1945), published
posthumously by the Museu Paraense Emílio Goeldi in 1949 and based on an important set of
documentary and archaeological sources from the Lower Amazon (PA). The text is the first
written by an ethnologist about this indigenous group and was the result of an expedition carried
out by Nimuendajú to Santarém (PA) and surrounding areas in 1923, with funding from the
Gothenburg Museum, to collect archaeological and ethnographic material. The dissertation
concludes that the ethnologist's intellectual production on the Tapajó, as well as being relevant
to the History of Science in Brazil, outlined a theme of archaeological studies that would be
widely developed in the second half of the 20th century and configured an interpretative key
on the subject that would last for decades. |
