Ethnohistory, ethnocide and ethnogenesis at the frontier: the Itatines trajectory
The current Kaiowás, Paĩ-tavyterã and Guarayos from Brazil, Paraguay and Bolivia descend from the ancient Itatines. This paper examines the Itatín universe, formerly linked to the Pantanal region and settled at present at both margins of the Paraguay River. This block disintegrated during the 16th a...

This paper examines the Itatín universe, formerly linked to the Pantanal region and settled at present at both margins of the Paraguay River. This block disintegrated during the 16th and 18th centuries due to colonial pressures -bandeiras , missions, settlers- and the action of other indigenous groups such as the Mbayá.

Descendientes de los antiguos itatines son hoy los kaiowás, los paĩ-tavyterã y los guarayos, respectivamente en Brasil, Paraguay y Bolivia. El artículo examina cómo el conjunto itatín, antaño muy ligado al Pantanal y presente en ambas orillas del río Paraguay, se desagregó durante los siglos XVI a XVIII bajo las presiones coloniales (bandeiras, misiones, colonos) y de otros indígenas como los mbayás. Estas presiones transformaron en una primera etapa las dinámicas internas, hasta acabar con los itatines como etnia. El etnocidio precedió así a la etnogénesis de los tres grupos actuales. Se cuenta aquí esta etnohistoria en el sentido de formación y reconformación de un conjunto étnico. Os descendentes dos antigos Itatinss ão hoje os Kaiowá, os Paĩ-Tavyterã e os Guarayos, respectivamente no Brasil, Paraguai e Bolívia. O artículo examina como o conjunto Itatin, antigamente muito ligado ao Pantanal e presente nas duas margens do rio Paraguai, se desagregou durante os séculos XVI a XVIII sob as pressões coloniais (bandeiras, missões, colonos) e de outros indígenas, como os Mbayá. Estas pressões transformaram, em uma primeira etapa, as dinâmicas internas, até acabar com os Itatins como etnia. O etnocídio precedeu, assim, a etnogêneses dos três grupos atuais. O artigo conta esta etnohistória no sentido de formação e reconformação de um conjunto étnico. Sección Etnohistoria, Instituto de Ciencias Antropológicas.

| description |
The current Kaiowás, Paĩ-tavyterã and Guarayos from Brazil, Paraguay and Bolivia descend from the ancient Itatines. This paper examines the Itatín universe, formerly linked to the Pantanal region and settled at present at both margins of the Paraguay River. This block disintegrated during the 16th and 18th centuries due to colonial pressures -bandeiras , missions, settlers- and the action of other indigenous groups such as the Mbayá. These pressures transformed the internal dynamics of the Itatines, who finally stopped being a unified ethnic group. Therefore ethnocide preceded the ethnogenesis of three current societies. The ethnohistory of this process of formation and reconfiguration of ethnic groups is hereby analysed. |
