“…Economic expansion to the west led to great conflicts with indigenous groups, which again resulted in a decreased number of native peoples due to enslavement, escape, and death [ 39 ]. Thus, occupying the southern half of Piauí increased the presence of African slaves, who came from the coast to work at the ranches.…”

“…Thus, occupying the southern half of Piauí increased the presence of African slaves, who came from the coast to work at the ranches. The slave trade was also intense in this area considering the geographical location of Piauí, being in between the states of Maranhão and Pernambuco, which, as previously mentioned, were African slave arrival points [ 39 ].…”

mtDNA structure: the women who formed the Brazilian Northeast

BackgroundThe distribution of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) lineages in Brazil is heterogeneous due to different regional colonization dynamics. Northeastern Brazil, although being an important region in terms of human imigration and ethnic admixture, has little information regarding its population mtDNA composition. Here, we determine which mitochondrial lineages contributed to the formation of the Northeastern Brazilian population. Our sample consisted of 767 individuals distributed as follows i) 550 individuals from eight Northeastern states (Piauí, Ceará, Rio Grande do Norte, Paraíba, Pernambuco, Alagoas, Sergipe, and Bahia) which were sequenced for mtDNA hypervariable segments I, II, and III; ii) 217 individuals from Alagoas and Pernambuco (previously published data). Data analysis was performed through sequence alignment and Haplogrep 2.0 haplogroup assignment tools. Furthermore, maternal ancestry distribution was contextualized and, when possible, related to historical events to better understand the biological interactions and population dynamics that occurred in this region since the beginning of colonization.ResultsUnexpectedly, Amerindian mitochondrial ancestry was the highest in the Northeastern region overall, followed by African, European and non-Amerindian Asian, unlike previous results for this region. Alagoas and Pernambuco states, however, showed a larger African mtDNA frequency. The Northeastern region showed an intraregional heterogeneous distribution regarding ancestral groups, in which states/mesoregions located to the north had a prevalent Amerindian ancestral frequency and those to the south had predominance of African ancestry. Moreover, results showed great diversity of European haplogroups and the presence of non-Amerindian Asian haplogroups.ConclusionsOur findings are in disagreement with previous investigations that suggest African mitochondrial ancestry is the most prevalent in the Brazilian Northeast. The predominance of Amerindian lineages exemplifies the importance of indigenous women in the formation of the population, despite intense African slave entry and conflicts with European settlers. The variable distribution of ancestral groups observed in the Northeast is in accordance with historical records showing the similarities with colonization dynamics occurred in the Amazon region and the Brazilian Southeast. Moreover, the variety of European haplogroups suggests multiple origins of founding groups, specially those found in Western European populations.Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (doi:10.1186/s12862-017-1027-7) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.

“…Exemplar, nesse sentido, foi o processo de expansão e de conquista dos sertões orientais do Estado do Maranhão e Pará, que se iniciou a partir de finais do século XVII, na capitania do Maranhão e na capitania do Piauí (Chambouleyron & Melo, 2013a). Este movimento alternou conflitos com os índios da região, considerados um empecilho para a presença dos portugueses, e a doação de terras aos moradores, principalmente para a criação de gado (Medeiros, 2000;Chambouleyron & Melo, 2013b;M. Silva, 2016;Melo, 2017;Roland, 2018).…”

Resumo Este artigo tem por tema a questão da terra e os índios na Amazônia, de meados do século XVII a meados do século XVIII. O objetivo é discutir os processos de expropriação ensejados pela conquista europeia, pensados no tempo e no espaço, e refletir como, para além desta perspectiva, é preciso entender de que maneira os índios coloniais buscaram construir espaços de autonomia por meio da agricultura. Trata-se de mostrar que, se a colonização implicou um processo de apagamento dos espaços e das práticas agrícolas indígenas, os índios conseguiram construir novas práticas ou legitimar novos espaços de produção agrícola, no interior do próprio mundo colonial.

“…Mais recentemente, tratando dos Gueguê e também dos Akroá e Timbira, a dissertação de Vanice Siqueira de Melo (2011) e o artigo que ela escreveu com Rafael Chambouleyron (CHAMBOULEYRON;MELO, 2013), analisam a guerra entre os indígenas e os lusobrasileiros, os interesses dos governadores nessas contendas e a composição dos espaços indígenas no período colonial no Estado do Maranhão e Grão Pará. Também abordando o Piauí colonial, a tese de Mairton Celestino da Silva (2016), buscou compreender a formação do Estado do Maranhão e do Piauí a partir da expansão política e econômica, levando em conta as relações de conflitos, negociações e alianças, empreendidos entre os indígenasincluindo os Gueguê, Akroá e Timbira -, os "brancos", africanos e mestiços (livres ou escravizados).…”

The main objective of this thesis is to analyze/discuss the "openness" of six Jê peoples-Akroá, Xakriabá, Gueguê, Xavante, Timbira and Southern Kayapó-, to the others, in this particular case, to the White people or Portuguese-Brazilian, in regions of the current "Planalto Central do Brasil" (Central Brazil Highlands) in the 18th century. To write this paper, I basically used archival sources which were produced by the Portuguese Crown agents and stowed at Ultramarino Historical Archive. The texts were read according to the evidential paradigm, besides making use of specialized literature and but also from the relation between structure and event proposed by Marshall Sahlins. The openness which was desired by the Jê peoples could be noticed both in the practice of warlike incursions and within the alliances, and it must be understood taking account of issues related to Indigenous and Indigenist policies.
