Landscape analysis and material culture from archaeological sites, that appear since the early Holocene on the surrounding areas of these places, were our guides. We present three case studies as examples of the historical potential of the waterfalls: Teotônio (Upper Madeira), Tucuruí (Lower Tocantins) and; Xingó (Lower São Francisco). Our main conclusion is that these landmarks should be understood as pockets of histories and should receive special attention as to their preservation.

They describe the procurement of raw materials, vessel manufacture, and distribution within households, the primary functions and the secondary uses of vessels, and the pattern of ceramic discard. While not primarily concerned with classification, the authors provide useful information about native taxonomy (particularly as it relates to vessel function), and about variations among potters. In focusing on variations in vessel use and longevity, and on the processes which transform ceramic objects into archaeological artifacts, the article contributes to a growing literature illuminating formation processes of the archaeological record, and has implications for the formulations of archaeological sampling design (introduction by Carol Kramer of the 1979 version).

Speculation about the process of dispersion of these groups has been ongoing for decades. In this paper we point out that studying the history of the TupiGuarani groups from Eastern Amazonia, producers of pottery related to the Amazonian Tupinambá Subtradition, is fundamental to the comprehension of the mobility and internal complexity of the Tupi-Guarani.
