Atlantic Forest coast of Brazil with its biodiverse littoral zone and artisanal fishing communities Traditional maritime knowledge is thought to have a deep-history and indeed marine exploitation can be traced back to the middle Holocene As part of one of South America’s largest diasporas Guarani groups reached the southern Brazilian coast at around 1000 years ago Their impact on the long-standing coastal economy is unknown due to poor preservation of organic remains Through the first organic residue study on Guarani pottery we show that maize rather than aquatic foods was the most dominant product in pottery at this time By developing a mixing model based on carbon isotope values of saturated and mono-unsaturated fatty acids we propose new criteria for the identification of maize Our data confirms the importance of maize to the pre-colonial Guarani even in a highly productive coastal environment The Guarani occupation of this region marks a significant departure from previous socio-economic systems potentially leading to loss of traditional knowledge and alleviating anthropogenic pressure The deep historical roots of indigenous knowledge and its increasing value in conservation and development agendas require a good understanding of the origin changing nature and modern legacy of indigenous knowledge and practices Charting changes in marine resource exploitation throughout the occupation history of this region therefore provides an opportunity to document the heritage of Brazil’s Atlantic fisheries and to assess their longer-term sustainability in response to different environmental and cultural drivers of change both key to securing their future conservation Longitudinal studies that extend beyond landing records are crucial for monitoring anthropogenic pressure on the marine environment Map of South America, with the distribution of the Tupi-Guarani language family accentuated in dark green and the location of study sites of the Taquara-Itararé (yellow) and Guarani (green) traditions. This map was generated using ArcGIS 10.8, Inkscape and Adobe Illustrator CS6 (see “Methods” for more details) as marine resources would likely produce similar values Factors affecting the formation and preservation of aquatic biomarkers in pottery may also be relevant differences between plain (n = 88) and decorated (n = 70) Guarani sherds (Mann Whitney U = 18 with the former showing more enriched δ13C18:1 values may hint at correlations between form and function in the frequency of bacteriohopanes between decorated and undecorated sherds (t(0.26) that also show a departure from previous coastal oriented economies and a broadening of the subsistence base at this juncture the longer-term consequences of the Guarani expansion which eventually encompassed the entire coast of Brazil The broadening of subsistence practices and widespread cultivation of maize may have alleviated some anthropogenic pressure on marine and estuarine systems that had previously been intensely exploited for millennia and as a result may have led to a loss of maritime indigenous knowledge Our study also highlights the problem of ‘shifting baselines’ when using archaeological and historical data to inform modern policies and the danger of assuming that ‘prehistory’ was culturally and economically static as it is frequently presented in colonial discourse

It was just the opportunity that Diogo needed a meatloaf cake with a side of fried banana chips the most beloved botequim in Rio’s West Zone It’s an area where poverty is prevalent and rapid urbanization has led to air and water pollution increased lawlessness due to the growth of the drug trade an oasis of great food and drinks that also happens to be a lot of fun The bar has a huge kitchen that serves standard botequim fare: deep-fried bean and rice cakes; feijoada (a meat and bean stew); pasteis (pockets of dough that are stuffed and then deep fried); and sandwiches But outside – literally in the middle of the street – is where the magic happens “The smoker was completed the same week that my first son was born I say that I had two sons at the same time.” It’s here that Diogo has parked his massive barbecue smoker which can prepare more than 60 pounds of meat at once wheeled apparatus is nicknamed caveirão (“big skull” in Portuguese) a reference to the black armored vehicles Rio’s police use against the drug dealers and gangs in the favelas there’s only wood-smoked meat: beef and pork ribs The burgers are actually the main attraction but also because they come with a side of fun On the “smoked burger nights,” which are usually held on Wednesdays Diogo and his crew involve customers in the cooking process letting them choose their own burgers from the grill and sometimes even handing over the spatulas so that they can flip the burgers themselves “Having this smoker is something I wanted for a long time who treats his apparatus almost like a baby “The smoker was completed and ready to use the same week that my first son was born I say that I had two sons at the same time,” he says sugar and cachaça which are very popular in Rio’s botequims Kelly’s creations are more exciting than your average batida; some of her best make use of uncommon ingredients The bar also produces a very popular drink made of cachaça with some excellent IPAs and an assortment of Brazilian beers the better to accompany a smoked burger from the caveirão loading map - please wait...Map could not be loaded - please enable Javascript!→ more information Sign In Subscribe Now Isaiah Gilson says he could feel the Amazon thicken around him voices of the other hikers quieted and the lush jungle got closer to his body There was still a week left and more than 150 kilometres of jungle to traverse and Gilson’s feet were already hurting “Everyone had to push themselves because we were a group who travelled to Brazil at the end of October Two hundred kilometres of Amazonian jungle in nine days - that was the schedule for the third youth expedition with Impossible2Possible a 20-year-old member of the Kluane First Nation was one of four youth ambassadors chosen to do the trek while sending back knowledge and information from along the way to about 16,000 students around the world I2P is an organization with a mandate to educate “The idea was to combine a sense of adventure and knowing that we can do great things with our life with creating awareness on issues around the world,” he says The idea hit him as he was running 7,500 kilometres across the Sahara desert That adventure made him unable to ignore two main facts human beings are capable of amazing things And if he were told when he was 16 he would go from a pack-a-day smoker to an adventure-athlete he became aware of the seriousness of the water crisis in other parts of the world “We are trying very hard to make education interesting and fun,” he says we bring the classrooms to the expedition and the expedition into the classrooms.” The first youth expedition was across the Akshayuk Pass on Baffin Island in Nunavut The second was a 265-kilometre run across the Tunisian Sahara Every expedition has a specific education focus as well as an “extraordinary act” attached to it i2P was backed by the United Nations to focus on biodiversity Ambassadors connected to classrooms worldwide They answered student questions and shared information videos and pictures about odd species of plants acts as a natural repellent to most pesky bugs Most scientists say the Amazon holds over 50 per cent of the world’s species The “extraordinary act” for the trek was the part Gilson was most excited about fundraising has been happening on the sidelines The goal is to build a school for the traditional village of Taquara in the Flora Do Tapajos along the Tapajos River where the group hiked Gilson prepared himself to meet with the indigenous peoples of the communities they would be passing through staying in and especially the one they would be helping to build a school for some carvings for gifts and was still practising new songs to share with them on the trip down there Gilson is Tutchone and attended the Amiskwaciy Academy in Edmonton from the ages 14-19 The Academy incorporates a lot of the Cree culture into the curriculum and Gilson always describes himself as wearing a moccasin on one foot Gilson recounts his experience with the people of Taquara “They are doing a song for us and we are all in a circle And everybody is really emotional and in touch because we’re experiencing this beautiful ceremony it’s a bit cooler so we’re not all too hot or sweaty sitting there and really enjoying the energy of the people and the kids The excitement and kindness and loving energy around us is a bit overwhelming… it is awesome.” When the other members of the group noted they had never experienced anything like the indigenous people’s culture before Gilson says he was a little bit frustrated because there are different cultures; ones very similar to these people Similarities between his own culture and those he met along the Tapajos were plentiful including the sacredness of the medicine wheel and the connection and dependence on the land Taquara was one of the more traditional villages of all of the ones they visited almost all of the communities live off of the land for all their foods and medicines and are very remote He told the chief and people of Taquara who he is and that he wants to help Gilson and Zahab met in Winnipeg at an IndigenACTION event an initiative through the Assembly of First Nations that tries to improve opportunities for aboriginal people through sport and fitness “He is an outstanding young man and I was immediately taken by him,” says Zahab “He is a shining example of what all youth around the world can be.” they would sit around having fish and rice for dinner and the conversation would always start with an amazing story: running through the Sahara Being a modern-day warrior is a state of mind he’s always had “Coming out of the trip it gave me a stronger sense of wanting to pursue that So I really want to start doing a lot more of the things I haven’t been doing: a lot more reading I want to become a writer because I want to use writing as an influential tool to show and explain things.” The youth representative for the Yukon at the Assembly of First Nations will be slotted some time to talk to national leadership this Christmas Keeping some sort of connection with the community of Taquara is a goal one he’s optimistic he’ll be able to fulfil “There’s more youth out there that do these sorts of things .. there’s always something going on with young people and people should be more aware of that I was really fortunate to be selected by a very well-connected organization.” Canada Goose and Apple are just a few of i2P’s sponsors have really helped the organization achieve its corporate mandate of no school ever having to pay for the experiential learning they receive And the projects they promise - like the school in Taquara - is guaranteed “I expect nothing and everything - I only expect what is given to me,” says Gilson who didn’t know what he was getting into when he started his Brazilian adventure Now he looks out the window to the streets of downtown Whitehorse “Everyday was a learning experience,” he says noting new surroundings make that easier - familiarity and routine keep people from seeing and learning “I have an open mind and an open heart to the world around me because if I close my mind off to the world around me then I’m closing that opportunity to learn something - be it good or bad.” Dialogue and debate are integral to a free society and we welcome and encourage you to share your views on the issues of the day.
