RESUMO

The area between the Tietê and Paranapanema river valleys, in São Paulo State territory, were a traditional place which was occupied by the Kaingang population, an ethnic group which belongs to the linguistic group named Jê. At the beginning of the 20th century, the villages of Icatú are created, with the "pacification" of the Kaingang by the Indian Protection Service ( SPI ), the current Indian National Fundation (FUNAI ), along the Penápolis-Aguapeí road and so are Índia Vanuíre villages, near the Feio/Aguapeí river, in Tupã, nowadays, with the emancipation of what is known today as the town of Arco-Iris. Those villages of Icatú have spread out wider in this pattern so far. These areas correspond to a small portion of what once was the territory occupied by the Kaingang population. From an ethnoarchaeological perspective, it may be interesting for us to understand the Kaingang society, focusing upon their material production, especially their pottery, as well as their way of using space and a settlement system, in order to create interpretative patterns about behavioral aspects and past social dynamics. At the same time, it may be useful to understand how the different historical elements coming from the capitalist expansion process caused changes in the Indian way of life to draw up a clearer map of Kaingang occupation in the dry lands of São Paulo territory.
