O Rio Verde Grande e os povos tradicionais de Jaíba: um estudo sobre o processo de desenraizamento

Abstract

This work intends to redeem part of the history of indigenous peoples that inhabited the territory of Jaíba and seek to understand how was the process of expropriation of the lands of these peoples who lived on the banks of the Rio Verde Grande within this municipality. The methodological assumption is based on qualitative research through oral sources. The procedures used were oral account of life and oral testimony, because it is less comprehensive and free form, in which the narrator addresses aspects of your life with freedom, but directing his account for certain topics (LANG, 1995). The technique used was the interview. Theorists that supported this study were: Costa (1999, 2005); Ecléa Bosi (1994, 2003); Lacerda (2012); Cunha (2010); Meihy (2010); Costa Son (2008), Ratts (2000) and others. From the collection of data, we focus the analysis to demonstrate what life was like for people who lived on the banks of Green River Grande before the processes of colonization and dispossession of land and territoriality. And try to understand how was the process of uprooting their culture.
