| Summary: | Historical Ecology has become a fertile line of research for thinking about the interaction between humans, plants, animals, and landscapes. Adding to the efforts in this direction, I bring the case of the indigenous people in isolation at Terra Indígena Massaco, Rondônia State, and the understandings about them based on the traces found in territorial security expeditions. Supported by the idea of a refusal of "antineolithic" agriculture (Otto, 2016) as a choice of advantageous loss (Levi-Strauss, 2005), and seeking a way out of the binomial "forgetfulness" vs. "situational abandonment" (Santos, 2016), this text deals with the inscriptions that displacements imprint on landscapes, at the same time that it does so on those who are displaced, drawing attention to possible cultivation practices hidden at first sight. |
