Topic: Caboclo


In the News (Wed 15 Feb 12)

  
  caboclo
In questo momento il caboclo è il "meticcio dalla pelle ramata" che abita nella boscaglia e, reclutato nell'estrazione dei prodotti vegetali, integra questa attività coltivando le terre fertili della varzea (pianura alluvionale).
Ma anche il caboclo, attraverso l'intensa fusione sul piano fisico e culturale accolse alcuni elementi esterni che contribuirono a conferire alla sua cultura quel carattere profondamente sincretico di cui essa è tutt'oggi portatrice.
Il caboclo continua a praticare la tradizionale agricoltura di sussistenza dedicandosi alla coltivazione di manioca, mais, fagioli, riso e patata dolce ed integrando la propria dieta con i prodotti della pesca, della caccia e con la raccolta dei frutti della foresta (papaya, ananas, goiaba, ecc.).

She continued, 'Look here, the laziness of the caboclo of the region is a result of nature helping them too much and being too kind to them, fish and birds are free.
In sum, the use of the term caboclo is a linguistic tool supporting the marginalisation and history of conquest and oppression of indigenous and mixed blood peoples of the Amazon.
The usage of caboclo is still widely accepted in academic circles, but does not have the negative connatations, instead it has become a generic term to refer to the `historical Amazonian peasantries' (see Nugent 1993).

Nesta "nação", tem fundamental importância o culto dos caboclos, que são espíritos de índios, considerados pelos antigos africanos como sendo os verdadeiros ancestrais brasileiros, portanto os que são dignos de culto no novo território a que foram confinados pela escravidão.
Durante o transe ritual, os caboclos conversam com seus seguidores e amigos, oferecendo conselhos e fórmulas mágicas para o tratamento de todos os tipos de problemas.
Caboclos e pretos-velhos (espíritos de escravos) são centrais na umbanda, em que estas entidades têm papel mais importante no cotidiano da religião do que os próprios Òrìñà.

One of the first theatrical events to be incorporated and adapted by the Caboclos, the "Boi Bumbá" remains one of the highlights of June celebrations in the Amazon.
Penner (1984) observed that some of the basic socio-economic characteristics of the Amazon Caboclos, such as their reliance on fishing and the widespread use of boats as a form of transportation, might be credited to the Caboclos' "dependency on the Amazonic physical environment" (p.
Through ethnographic research, I was able to identify and analyze some of the cultural changes that have occurred in the Caboclo fishing community of São João de Pirabas in the past two decades.

Amazonian Caboclo Society is concerned with peasant society in Brazilian Amazonia.
Most anthropological work in Amazonia has focused on Indian groups, and caboclos (peasants of mixed ancestry) have generally been regarded as relics of the haphazard development of Amazonia and have received little serious attention.
This volume aims to analyze the reasons for the relative 'invisibility' of caboclo society.

Several caboclo families lived there, and some Indians were camped there temporarily, helping the headman of J acamim, whose name was Almerindo, convert his recently harvested manioc into farinha.

 Amazonian Caboclo Society : An Essay on Invisibility and Peasant Economy   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
Traditionally, Non-Indian societies in Brazilian Amazonia - 'caboclo' - are treated by anthropologists as relics of the haphazard development of Amazonia - leftovers of the colonial enterprise and have therefore received little serious attention.
The first part of the book is concerned with the concept of caboclo as it emerges in anthropological and Amazonianist disclosure.
Overall, this volume aims to examine the reasons for the relative 'invisibility' of caboclo society and to place it in a historical perspective.

The Reserve’s inhabitants, the Caboclo Indians, have never used an electric light bulb, and as a matter of routine, kindle an evening fire and light their kerosene lamps.
The Caboclos treasure the fragile ecosystem in which they live, and as a result have created the Amazon Association, an organization whose intent is to preserve and protect the rainforest ecology.
Within moments of plugging it in, the local Caboclo Indians were having measurements of blood pressure, body temperature, pulse, and blood-oxygen uploaded via satellite to the Telemedicine Center at the University of East Carolina (in North Carolina) for remote analysis.

The Solar Electric Light Fund was invited to undertake the project by the Amazon Association, a group composed largely of the Reserve’s Caboclo residents, who seek to improve their quality of life without exploiting and degrading the fragile surrounding ecosystem.
Solar photovoltaic power was recognized as a dependable, non-polluting energy technology that could be introduced with sensitivity to the setting, while producing electricity to meet a number of vital needs, and helping to stem a growing exodus to overcrowded, overburdened cities such as Manaus.
An alliance of Caboclo Indians and scientific researchers, the Association has facilitated research projects by a number of Brazilian, European and American institutions, often focused on animal species in danger of extinction elsewhere in the Amazon, such as the Brazilian giant otter.

This paper focuses on three Caboclo populations differentiated by land tenure and land use systems (small owners, sharecroppers and cooperativists, respectively).

As the religion grew in Brazil, it spread from rural caboclo (mixed-blood river dwellers) communities into new settings and populations.
These include the urban middle class, health professionals, and intelligentsia, as well as more marginalized groups, such as drug addicts (the churches have become well known for their work in helping people to overcome addictions), counter-culturalists, and the urban poor.
