“…The title of her book, What This Awl Means, refers to an excavated awl, whose carvings are the ground for a story, woven from material objects and passed-down narratives, of the young woman who used the awl. Spector's archaeological work took on a richness, a degree of complexity, and a greater fidelity to the lives it chronicled than it would have had she simply dug wherever it seemed promising to do so (Nicholas andWylie 2009, Spector 1993).…”

“…Entretanto, consideramos que é preciso atentar para não perpetuarmos relações de poder assimétricas que sustentam apropriações culturais indevidas (Nicholas & Wylie 2009). Propomos portanto o uso do termo "levantamento consultante" para destacar as consultas orais que fazemos às comunidades acerca da existência de sítios arqueológicos de observações oportunísticas de aspectos físicos dos lugares prospectados.…”

ResumoEste artigo descreve o levantamento de sítios arqueológicos em territó-rios tradicionalmente ocupados na Amazônia. O que é imprescindível para o nosso acesso aos locais é o conhecimento territorial dos ocupantes. Ao relatar o processo de desenvolvimento de pesquisas arqueológi-cas nas margens de três dos principais rios da Amazônia (Tapajós, Madeira e Solimões), pretendemos explorar as variadas relações existentes entre as comunidades tradicionais e os recursos arqueológicos existentes em seus territórios, desafiando conceitos estanques do significado de patrimônio. Propomos que arqueólogos busquem ser parceiros das comunidades tradicionais, as quais têm contribuições inestimáveis para a geração do conhecimento.Palavras-chave: Arqueologia na Amazônia, prospecção arqueológica, comunidades tradicionais, rios Tapajós, Madeira e Solimões, Lago Tefé. ON THE MARGINS: AMAZONIAN ARCHAEOLOGY IN TRA-DITIONALLY OCCUPIED TERRITORIES AbstractThe article describes archaeological surveys carried out in traditionally occupied territories in Amazonia, in which the territorial knowledge of current inhabitants constitutes a key factor in access to sites. In writing about the archaeology along the banks of three of the Amazonia's main rivers (Tapajós, Madeira and Solimões), we hope to explore the varied relations between these communities and the archaeological resources of their territories, challenging rigid conceptions on archaeological heritage. We propose that archaeologists seek to become partners of the traditional communities who provide them with invaluable contributions. EN EL MARGEN Y AL MARGEN: ARQUEOLOGÍA AMAZÓNI-CA EN TERRITORIOS TRADICIONALMENTE OCUPADOS ResumenEste artículo describe un estudio de los sitios arqueológicos en territorios tradicionalmente ocupados en la Amazonía, cuyo acceso depende del conocimiento territorial esencial de sus ocupantes. Al describir el proceso de desarrollo de la investigación arqueológica en las riberas de los tres principales ríos de la Amazonía (Tapajós, Madeira y Solimões) los autores tienen la intención de explorar las variadas relaciones entre las comunidades tradicionales y los recursos arqueológicos existentes en sus territorios, desafiando conceptos rígidos del significado del patrimonio. Se propone que los arqueólogos se asocien a las comunidades tradicionales, cuyas contribuciones a la generación de conocimiento tienen un valor incalculable.

“…At a general level, and while there are many, many individual archaeologists who are exceptions to this rule, it can seem that North American practice tends to be fairly insular-regionally and nationally-to broader, global discourses (but note specifi c counter-examples such as Altschul 2010 ; Atalay 2012 ; MacEachern 2010 ; and various authors in King 2011b ; Messenger and Smith 2010 ;Nicholas 2010b ;Nicholas and Wylie 2009 ;Trigger 1980Trigger , 2006and in Rockman and Flatman 2011 ). 1 This is not to say North American discourse does not engage with broader, global trends in archaeology; just that such engagements tend to be fi ltered through emphatically local discourses, and then manifest as internalised discussions germane to a largely domestic and regional North American archaeological form of praxis.…”
