Language, exogamy and ethnicity in the Upper Rio Negro region
In this article we explore how languages interact with exogamous social units (e.g., clans and phratries) and descent ideologies (such as having a common mythical ancestor and emergence from the same mythical place) to help organize the multilingual and interethnic societies from the Upper Rio Negro region (URN) in the Amazon. We show that the expected alignment of language boundary, exogamous group and descent group is actually quite unusual. Co…
Desana numerical symbols
In 2006, a narrative of the Desana people included a system of graphic symbols reported as a historical Indigenous invention used during intertribal warfare to count the number of enemies and pass warning information. This paper outlines and evaluates the Desana graphic system. The Desana people are described, and their timeline of mythical events is compared to historical accounts of the region. Contemporary Desana spoken numbers are then charac…
Comparing Rural Multilingualism in Lowland South America and Western Africa
This article explores and compares multilingualism in small-scale societies of Western Africa and Lowland South America. All are characterized by complex and extensive multilingual practices and regional exchange systems established before the onset of globalization and its varying impacts. Through overviews of the general historical and organizational features of regions, vignette case studies, and a discussion of transformative processes affect…
Conocimiento, historia y lugares sagrados. La formación del sistema regional del alto río Negro desde una visón interdisciplinar
A partir de um olhar interdisciplinar que cruza, principalmente, conhecimentos da arqueologia, da etnologia e da linguística histórica, este texto dá os primeiros passos para construir uma história plausível da formação do sistema regional do Alto Rio Negro e, assim, localizá-lo na história geral da Amazônia. Para a reconstrução da história deste sistema regional, composto principalmente por povos falantes de línguas tukáno orientais e aruaques, …
A Revised Proposal of Proto-Tukanoan Consonants and Tukanoan Family Classification
Este artículo presenta una reconstrucción de las consonantes proto-tucanas y la clasificación de la familia basada en innovaciones fonológicas compartidas
On Proto-Languages and Archaeological Cultures
This work analyzes the cultural history of the Tukanoan family by attempting the reconstruction of 107 words related to the material culture shared by Amazonian peoples, especially in the Northwest Amazon. The analysis of the terminological system of words that can be reconstructed to Proto-Tukanoan, as well as words that can only be reconstructed to intermediate proto-languages or words that cannot be reconstructed at all allows for a set of cul…
