| Summary: | Reflection upon the relations between the indigenous people of Tenetehara (Tupi-Guarani) and Pukob'gateye (Je-Timbira), regarding the Access to one another's territories in the search for material and symbolic goods. The Buriticupu river presents as a socio-symbolic milestone defining territorialities. The invitations for joint fishing are equivalent to the signing of bilateral treaties allowing Access to the respective territories, until a new event occurs, replacing them in diverging situations and the accesses are again suspended. The National society, in spite of its preponderance in the pluriethnical regional system is purposively left 'between brackets'. The focus of interest is centered in the process of interrelationship between these indigenous people that, in spite of the structure they are submersed into, do not cease to search for other ways to live together that escape the occidental logic of domination/power.
