Abstract

This work aims to conduct a historiographic study on the uses of body painting among the Jiripankó indigenous, inhabitants in the upper hinterland of the state of Alagoas. Thus, we historicize the presence of body graphics throughout the formation of the group and its contribution as a representation of the memory and identity of ethnicity; describing it, therefore, as an important part of the history of these indigenous peoples. Methodologically, we conducted studies from documentary sources related to the process of recognition of ethnicity, which are followed by empirical research characterized by the production of photographs, notes in field diaries and interviews, providing an analysis of the history and memory wrapped in the body painting of that society.
