Early hunter-gatheres in the Terra Firme Rainforest: stemmed projectile points from the Curuá goldmines

A pattern of accidental stone-tool finds in the terra firme of the Curua river in the middle Xingu basin suggest a widespread occupation by preceramic hunter-gatherers there, contrary to expectations that the tropical rainforest has insufficient food resources away from the Amazon floodplain. The stone tools include finely flaked stemmed projectile points possibly related to some from terminal Pleistocene contexts at Caverna da Pedra Pintada, Monte Alegre. The food remains with the Monte Alegre tools were from broad-spectrum rupestral and riverine forest foraging. The Xingu points were recovered by artisanal gold-miners in sands and gravels under the Curua river. The miners come across the tools while digging and screening gold-bearing sediments. Those deposits also sometimes contain plant remains and prehistoric wooden artifacts, potential sources of information about ancient habitat, subsistence, and technology. The research team of the Lower Amazon project traveled to several of the underwater find-sites with the miners to prepare for excavations in the future. At one site, Curupite, where miners had found a large stemmed point and a complete palm-wood harpoon foreshaft in 1986, the team used scuba equipment to survey the stream bed and mine pits and map the topography with laser theodolite.

Pontos de memória: de Política Cultural a Museus em periferias.
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2021-11-05) ALCÂNTARA, Camila de Fátima Simão de Moura; GODOY, Renata de; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5173744417832044; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8138-8670
The following thesis presents an ethnographic research on the community initiatives of Points of Memory that participated in a democratic process for the construction of a cultural public policy in Brazil, based on social museology. The objective of this study is to understand the political and social (re)arrangements that the twelve self-styled “pioneers” initiatives make to maintain their museum processes in the Brazilian peripheries. Territories marked by deprivation and abandonment of effective public policies, where there is a proliferation of all kinds of violence against the place and its people. Reflections on the object of the research took place through the Anthropology of Museums, which provided an interpretation of museum processes in contact with the perception of the representations of pioneer Memory Spots about their realities in their places of existence. Organized into five chapters, the thesis discusses museums in processes that use realities and creative solutions in peripheral urban spaces to register the social memory and safeguard the cultural heritage of the various social groups that live in these territories. Presenting the main public policy guidelines aimed at museums that encouraged these groups to create their museum processes. The pioneering points' initiatives are revisited based on a privileged view of the Terra Firme Memory Spot, in Belem do Para, in which it considered community movements to defend the territorial, social, cultural and political development of the communities they represent. In this ethnographic research, I understand that the pioneering Memory Spots are museums in processes formed by different subjects who enrich themselves as communities, when they develop critical thinking about their realities and organize transformative collective actions in the cities where they take place, based on the active forces of memory. These museum processes come to life within communities, strengthening them as subjects who create, recreate and decide on their realities.

O processo de periferização e violência urbana na baixada belenense: um estudo sobre os agentes territoriais e os homicídios no bairro da Terra Firme nos anos de 2011 a 2019

The urban space can be understood as a mosaic of dialectical relations between society and space over time, in other words, the city can be incorporated as a set of human and historical relations in space. Among them, it is mentioned the formation of differentiated and contradictory areas driven by the current capitalist system. An example of this is the dynamics of cities in underdeveloped countries that presented accelerated urbanization and because of this brought several problems that extend to the present day, among them is the peripheralization that is marked by the unequal production of urban space that is configured in relations between center and periphery. The central areas are highlighted for their visibility and concentration of resources and capital, so investments and the presence of the State becomes more effective, unlike what happens in the urban peripheries of the capital of Pará, which were produced by low-income groups that were segregated from the city center. Therefore, these spaces started to be self-built and occupied in an accelerated and unplanned way by the State. On the outskirts, as is the case of the Terra Firme neighborhood, the public power is inefficient with regard to its territorial actions, so these spaces become conditions for new territorialities that seek to establish their power relations, as in the case of drug trafficking and militias and often generate tensions and as a result violence is present in these locations. The objective of this research is to understand the dynamics of homicides between the years 2011 to 2019, and its relationship with the precarious areas of Terra Firme district, as well as with the territorial actors involved with their territorialities. The method adopted was the historical and dialectical materialist, which allowed a discussion on socio-spatial analyzes and power relations in the territory. We used thematic cartography geoprocessing tools such as Quantum Gis, linking homicide data from the SIAC, to IBGE data and its social indicators. This dissertation is divided into four essential chapters, the first is consistent with a methodological approach to the research, the second the theoretical discussion, the third the characterizations and peripheralization of the neighborhood of Terra Firme and the last chapter corresponds to the analysis of homicides and agents that manifest themselves from the power gaps left by the State.
