“…Here we scrutinize data coming from what we call ''the central states'' of Brazil. Our database composed of 436 radiocarbon and luminescence dates is drawn mainly on Oliveira and Viana (2000) and Etchevarne (2000). Plotting these dates in bar graphs at 500-yr intervals provides an overview of the pattern occurring in Central Brazil (Fig.…”

Holocene Dryness and Human Occupation in Brazil During the “Archaic Gap”

An overview of the archaeological data produced over the last decades for Brazil, coupled with a background of recent paleoenvironmental studies, suggests that during the mid-Holocene vast areas of Central Brazil ceased to be occupied by human groups. Independent data from dated human skeletons, rock-shelter stratigraphy, and chronology of open-air sites converge to support the inference that these areas were depopulated or altogether abandoned. Paleoenvironmental data suggest that dryness events constitute the major cause behind the observed trends. This phenomenon expands the already perceived notion that climatic stresses had a major role in the shaping of human settlement patterns in marginal environments, such as deserts and high-altitude settings.

“…It obviously represents a different design space when compared to Umbu. The oldest age obtained for the Itaparica is 12,560 calBP (10,750 ± 300 14C years BP; wood charcoal, site GO-NI-49, sample SI-2769; Oliveira and Viana 2000), and the youngest age is 9370 calBP (8370 ± 75 14C years BP; wood charcoal, site GO-JA-26, sample SI-5562; Oliveira and Viana 2000).…”

On Vastness and Variability: Cultural Transmission, Historicity, and the Paleoindian Record in Eastern South America

Eastern South America, or what is today Brazilian territory, poses interesting questions about the early human occupation of the Americas. Three totally distinct and contemporaneous lithic technologies, dated between 11,000 and 10,000 14 C BP, are present in different portions of the country: the Umbu tradition in the south, with its formal bifacial industry, with well-retouched scrapers and bifacial points; the Itaparica tradition in the central-west / northwest, totally unifacial, whose only formal artifacts are limaces; and the "Lagoa Santa" industry, completely lacking any formal artifacts, composed mainly of small quartz flakes. Our data suggests that these differences are not related to subsistence or raw-material constraints, but rather to different cultural norms and transmission of strongly divergent chaînes opératoires. Such diversity in material culture, when viewed from a cultural transmission (CT) theory standpoint, seems at odds with a simple Clovis model as the origin of these three cultural traditions given the time elapsed since the first Clovis ages and the expected population structure of the early South American settlers.

“…Central. O desenvolvimento incipiente da agricultura é inferido a partir da presença do material cerâmico, que ocorre em torno de 2000 anos AP (Oliveira e Viana, 2000). O sítio MT-SL-72 com 2390 ± 60 anos AP, na região do rio São Lourenço, marca o aparecimento da cerâmica em abrigos do Mato Grosso (Wüst, 1990(Wüst, , 1999.…”

“…A cerâmica da tradição Una também é citada por diversos pesquisadores, para contextos mais recentes de sítios a céu aberto do Tocantins, Goiás, Minas Gerais, Bahia, sendo interpretada nesses casos, como resultado do desenvolvimento isolado da agricultura por grupos locais (Prous, 1992;Robrahn-Gonzalez, 1996 a;Oliveira e Viana, 2000).…”

“…O estabelecimento difuso das aldeias de ceramistas agricultores, das tradições Aratu e Uru, no Brasil Central, ocorreu principalmente a partir do ano 1000, apesar da tradição Aratu ser um pouco mais antiga, com registro de datações de até 1800 anos AP. Como essas grandes aldeias datam de mais de 1000 anos após as primeiras evidências cerâmicas registradas (2500 anos AP), havendo um lapso temporal, são consideradas migrações a partir de pólos de produtores de cerâmica mais antigos, como a Amazônia (Robrahn-Gonzalez, 1996a; Oliveira e Viana, 2000).…”
