| Resumo: | The research here presented was developed from 2011 and 2013 in the indigenous village of Pataxo Barra Velha, located in the south of Bahia (a Brazilian state). Its investigative proposal was to describe and analyze body ornaments produced by the Pataxó people to understand their manufacturing practices, use, and commercialization of the artifacts. During this descriptive and analytical exercise questions related to indigenous heritage dynamicity were discussed. Such dynamicity is linked to indigenous cultures. The methodology for the research was based on the development of an Inventory about body ornaments, the Inventory was divided in two parts: material inventory and practices inventory. Participant observation, informal talks, personal narratives from the artisans of the village, interviews, and photographs were used as tools for data collection. Material and cultural practices of reflexive inventories of the Pataxó crafts were the result of this investigative process. This process led to a reflexive thinking about material diversity towards the authenticity of the indigenous craft and also about manufacturing creative process and Pataxo body ornaments. The inventory practice allowed the description of processes, Pataxos habits in different moments of their everyday lives and in other places. Because of this practice it was possible to follow describe and analyze the procedures used in the material selection use and commercialization of the craft according to its internal and external demands. It also made possible to us to notice that the body ornaments are understood by the Pataxo people as a village cultural reference due to the symbolic and material richness given to these articraft by the Indians. Finally, it permitted us to follow production, use and commercialization moments to verify the relationships among Indians, Indians and nonindians in different processes related to the articraft and the everyday use or rituals of the body ornaments. |
