Monte Castelo and Guaporé wetland contexts
Monte Castelo (site or scholarly name, not an established ancient self-designation)
Monte Castelo combines construction, food remains, ceramics and other practices in a wetland setting. Layered evidence reveals changing uses rather than one unchanging economy or political identity.
Communautés, paysages et éléments probants
Fleuves, forêts, zones humides et connexions
The Guaporé wetlands connect river and seasonal floodplain environments. The public town point does not locate funerary deposits or exposed remains.
Organisation politique et échelle communautaire
Households and coordinated construction are research questions; the material sequence does not identify a timeless centralized state.
Transformation coloniale, patrimoine vivant et réception moderne
The atlas excludes human-remains imagery and genetic classifications. Modern research and surviving Indigenous use require respectful, non-prescriptive treatment.
The 2021 study describes occupation and construction deposits; not every shell layer has the same function.
The 2017 study interprets rice phytolith changes as domestication evidence; the publisher correction must accompany important use.
The 2025 thesis examines lithic diversity over time, complementing plant and ceramic research.
Uma cronologia breve e documentada
Ces repères servent d'orientation et ne constituent pas une histoire complète.
-
Early occupation layers
The 2021 sequence identifies early deposits separately from later construction.
-
Rice-management evidence
The phytolith study places its domestication interpretation in this broad interval, not at the origin of every crop.
Alimentation, artisanat, langue, travail et croyances
Langues mentionnées dans ce profil
- The registered evidence does not securely establish every resident's spoken language; no language is assigned from material style alone.
Famille linguistique: No secure assignment from this evidence
Shell, soil and built layers have distinct formation histories.
Plant management persisted through changes in material evidence.
