Abstract

This article discusses dancing within the shamanic Maraká ritual and within the cosmogonic ritual of the Turé flutes among the Asuriní of the Xingú River, as an aesthetic manifestation and as a discourse constructed in the historical context, in the manner of an analysis of the place of this expressive form in the cultural and social life of Brazil’s indigenous peoples. Relating, in the same way, dance to social organization, and considering its communicative realization at a specific historical moment, dancing in another indigenous society, in this case the Jê speaking Xavante living in the cerrado of the Planalto Central, is described.
