Acesso em:.1982-5374https://repositorio.ufpa.br/handle/2011/13121The aim of this work is to show how the process of historical formation of the Mẽbêngôkre, located in the South of Pará between the Xingu and Araguaia rivers, took place. The data collected for the study come from different bibliographical sources, such as PhD theses, master's dissertations, from the area of Linguistics and Anthropology; data from government agencies, ONGs and newspaper clippings, as well as reports of language speakers to the author in village conversations during the researcher's stays. Talking about the Mẽbêngôkre of São Felix do Xingu is a way of identifying them among the Mẽbêngôkre groups, located in the north of Mato Grosso, groups that like the Gorotire are called Kayapó, and the Xikrin, located in Parauapebas and Altamira, group that is not considered Kayapó, but it is Mẽbêngôkre; and some groups considered extinct as Iran'amrãire and Kararaô.
