TRAJETÓRIAS SOCIOESPACIAIS DAS MULHERES PANHĨ: PROTAGONISMO E SABEDORIAS ANCESTRAIS

Abstract

This article aims to address ethnographic experiences with indigenous women of the Apinajé people, elucidating socio-spatial trajectories, territoriality and ancestral knowledge. Because through the social dynamics built by affection and kinship, I present the socio-spatial trajectories of three women in the time frame from 2019 to 2020. During this period I was in constant contact with the family of matriarch Itelvina, an elder recognized for her territoriality and preservation of Apinajé cosmology. I started from the decolonial perspective, as a way of overcoming the colonial past (KAIOWÁ2023), as well as in the cup-territory relationship of Braulina Baniwa and Josiléia Kaingang (2023). Since the experiences showed that these women build trajectories in various social spaces such as the city of Tocantinópolis-TO, festivities, meetings, football championships and in other locations (TORRES, 2020). In which these trajectories are permeated by the ancestry that crosses their bodies and spatiality.
