Amazonian Storytelling as Co-Learning Within the Land of More-Than-Human Beings and Environmental History from Indigenous Perspectives
Oral histories draw on distinct traditions to narrate more-than-human worlds. In this article, we address their role in materializing the more-than-human perspectives and presences in the Amazon by focusing on the specific Apurinã narrative of Awãi, a story of one Apurinã ancestor. The analysis of Awãi’s story underscores the intimate presence and subjectivity of diverse more-than-human beings and their epistemological dimensions in oral historie…
(Un)relating and (un)learning with more-than-humans during ethnographic practice
the production of knowledge in ethnographic research, and how can they possibly guide or hinder such processes?In attempting to answer these questions, we address diverse beings, such as plants, animals, microbes, and varied materials, from relational more-than-human methodological perspectives.This special issue is based on the panel '(Un)relating and (Un)learning with More-Than-Humans during Ethnographic Practice', which was organised by the sp…
Speaking and Singing Firmly: Beings (Un)related and (In)activated by Language in Amazonian Academic Research
Academic research results can serve diverse communities and individuals, whilst the research can itself transform researchers in multiple ways. In this article, I examine the significance of more-than-human beings in the process of becoming a researcher and through their roles within research. By reflecting on over 20 years of research experience in the Southwestern Amazon, I look at nonverbal and verbal modes of communication related to more-tha…

Paths and Networks Beyond the Human in Amazonian Social Worlds
The contemporary demarcated Indigenous lands are along with a few protected areas in Amazonia still remaining green and rich in biodiversity. This diversity has been formed over long period of time, as Indigenous peoples have opened and used numerous paths to move and traverse them since precolonial times. This mobility can be seen in their subsistence methods, exchange relations and trade (Vidal 2000; Peluso and Alexiades 2005; Alexiades 2009; R…
Animacy of Plants: Indigenous Relationalities in Global Landscapes
Relational Plants and Apurinã's Multibeing Life-Making
Southwestern Amazonia is one of the most biodiverse areas of the world. In this region, plants have a significant place and role in Indigenous peoples' social relations. They are inseparable actors in human history and crucial social actors within diverse social assemblages. Our article focuses on plant subjectivities in Apurinã ritual encounters, which highlight the elemental role of certain plants in complex relations of various more-than-human…
Deserted ruins: Maya tseltal and ch’ol engagement with salient spaces

The Role of Guadua Bamboo in Land Management and Indigenous Perspectives on Bamboo Ecosystems in Southwestern Amazonia
We examine the Indigenous uses, oral histories, and knowledge of native Guadua bamboo species in southwestern Amazonia. Two Guadua species form dense stands in which individual plants die en masse at regular intervals of about 28 years. Scholars suggested that pre-colonial earth builders took advantage of these die-off events as a natural aid in removing the forest to construct geometric earthworks. Our results show that Guadua species have a sig…
Indigenous Pedagogies in a Global World and Sustainable Futures
The relationship between Indigenous learning systems and sustainability pedagogies has not been sufficiently elaborated despite the recognition of Indigenous peoples as stewards of the world's biological, cultural and linguistic diversity. Indigenous pedagogies are intergenerational, relational, and land-based. This special section addresses intergenerational efforts to regenerate local biocultural knowledge in settings that extend beyond the cla…
Relational Epistemology and Amazonian Land-based Education: Learning the Ideas of Intra-dependency in the Central Purus River
This article discusses relational land-based education in the Brazilian Amazon and the idea of intra-dependency. The data produced with the Apurinã presents the intra-relational spaces of knowing created between different beings, human and other-than-human, which contrast with the notion of individual learners. Apurinã co-existence in learning also sheds light on the emotional dimension of Amazonian relational epistemology, while its inclusion of…
Epilogue
This collection of contributions addressing Indigenous research methodologies in Sámi and global contexts organically come to stress the responsibility of Indigenous research.This book grew out of years of collaboration.It started with a workshop at the Sámi University of Applied Sciences in Kautokeino.More correctly, in Guovdageaidnu.Using the Sámi name of a Sámi place is an important part of Indigenizing our research.At the Guovdageaidnu worksh…
Contemporary Indigenous Research within Sámi and Global Indigenous Studies Contexts
This chapter addresses the genealogy of Indigenous studies, and how it is conceptualized and practised in the Sámi context. It discusses the inclusion of Indigenous knowledges and Indigenous ways of doing research in academia, as well as the role of Indigenous research methodologies in this effort. We link our chapter to larger academic Indigenous discussions on the concepts of ‘knowledge’, ‘decolonization’, ‘research’ and ‘indigenization’. At th…
Kimapury Reflections: Values and Research Agendas in Amazonian Indigenous Research Relations
This chapter addresses the role of a "northern" researcher carrying out research with Amazonian Indigenous peoples. Reflecting on my long research experiences in the Purus River region, the states of Acre and Amazonas, Brazil, and my co-living and co-knowing with the Apurinã and Manchineri, I ask how Indigenous sovereignty and power can be accommodated with North-South relations. Indeed, can Indigenous agendas be combined with academic research a…
The materiality of languages in engagements with the environment
Communication, an apparently intangible practice, does in fact affect the way people engage with their social worlds in very material ways. Inspired by both ethnographic and archival-driven research, this special issue aims to fill the gap in studies of language materiality by addressing entanglements with other-than-human agencies. The contributions of this special issue on verbal and non-verbal communicative practices among Indigenous peoples a…
Amazonian worlds of other-than-human beings and the Apurinã through the materiality of oral stories
This article looks at what origin stories teach about the world and what kind of material presence they have in Southwestern Amazonia. We examine the ways the Apurinã relate to certain nonhuman entities through their origin story, and our theoretical approach is language materiality, as we are interested in material means of mediating traditional stories. Analogous to the ways that speakers of many other languages who distinguish the entities tha…
Personhood and Youth-Making in Contemporary Indigenous Amazonia
This essay looks at the construction of personhood in Brazilian Amazonia from the perspective of Indigenous youth. In Amazonian sociocosmology, personhood is constructed relationally, a process in which the body is a distinctive factor. Consequently, during schooling and university studies, young people have responded to and resisted representations and policies that have often silenced Indigenous voices and limited their fabrication of bodies. T…
Introduction: Toward more inclusive definitions of sustainability
This article identifies core dimensions in the notion of “sustainability” as it is conceptualized among Indigenous peoples. These are context-based relationality, community-based governance, education, language, quality of life and health, and communal recognition of certain nonhumans as life-givers. Taking into account different Indigenous cultural and socio-philosophical experiences and their process of sociality with different life forms, it h…
Domestication in Motion: Macrofossils of Pre-Colonial Brazilian Nuts, Palms and Other Amazonian Planted Tree Species Found in the Upper Purus
Evidence from several earthwork-building societies has recently been discovered in Amazonia that challenges existing theories about precolonial, human-environment interactions. Combining data obtained by plant macrofossil analyses, archaeological excavations, historical sources, and indigenous oral histories, we focus on the pre-colonial sources of subsistence and domestication processes of some tree species. Our study shows that the societies th…
Game masters and Amazonian Indigenous views on sustainability
Throughout the Amazon, notions of ownership and mastership shape the use of natural resources among many Indigenous communities. These ideas are reflected in the figure of game masters (i.e. spiritual beings who own the animals), which are widespread among Indigenous peoples across the Amazon Basin. In this paper, we explore the diverse biocultural manifestations of this socio-cosmology, focusing on the game masters' dynamic roles, histories and …
New Practices of Cultural Truth Making: Evidence Work in Negotiations with State Authorities
This article looks at negotiations with state authorities and the evidentiary criteria they create in culturally contrasting contexts when phenomena deal with elements that for the dominant society are conceptualized as "supernatural." We draw from the level of experiences of other-than-human beings, especially spirits and "ungraspable" presences, associal practicesin and of themselves as well as acts of mobilizing those which are meaningful for …
Ancestors’ times and protection of Amazonian Indigenous biocultural heritage
This article discusses how for the Apurinã community in Brazil, the relationships with certain places and nonhuman entities actually co-produce biocultural heritage. This involves not only storytelling, care, and respect, but also avoidance, and thus shows specific intergenerational ways of managing and relating to the land. Here I will especially address Apurinã ancestral forest and historical places, and the experiences and knowledge that they …

Visualization and Movement as Configurations of Human-Nonhuman Engagements: Precolonial Geometric Earthwork Landscapes of the Upper Purus, Brazil
Producing geometric designs and images on materials, such as pottery, basketry, and bead artwork, as well as the human body, is elemental and widespread among Amazonian Indigenous peoples. In this article, we examine the different geometric forms identified in the precolonial geoglyph architecture of southwestern Amazonia in the context of geometric design making and relational ontologies. Our aim is to explore earthwork iconography through the l…
Indigenous Social Media Practices in Southwestern Amazonia
This article discusses how the use of social media fosters, motivates, and regulates social relations among the Arawakan-and Panoan-speaking indigenous groups in the state of Acre and the southern part of the state of Amazonas, Brazil, where even the smallest towns have recently received high-speed internet connections. The research this article is based on analyzed what motivates indigenous social media users in Amazonian Brazil. I have gathered…

Recreating Relatedness
I n Amazonian social philosophies, proximity and relatedness have typically been created by common social acts that are conceived to produce similar bodies (McCallum 1996; Conklin and Morgan 1996; Vilaça 2002, 2005). This chapter looks at how relatedness is currently built between Manchineri villages, generations, urban and forest dwellers, and genders. First I look at community making through community practices and discourses and how this chang…

Introduction: Enquiries Into Contemporary Ritual Landscapes
‘Landscape’ and ‘ritual’ have been largely discussed in the social and human sciences, although their inter-relatedness has gained little scholarly attention. Drawing on earlier studies of ritual and landscape, as well as the authors′ own ethnographic works, ‘ritual landscape’ is suggested here as a useful analytical tool with which to understand how landscapes are produced, and how they, in their turn, produce certain types of being. ‘Ritual lan…

Les vestiges comme source de légitimation territoriale
À partir de récits sur les vestiges (pris au sens large : objets et présences diverses y compris non- humaines), on s’intéressera à la façon dont les populations indigènes et riveraines (du Brésil et d’Argentine) communiquent à un public extérieur (les agents de la patrimonialisation) une certaine idée de leurs liens au territoire. Dès lors, en mettant l’accent sur certaines saillances paysagères, les vestiges participent de la légitimation de re…
