RESUMO:

The theme chosen for this research is “The Fire Hunt of the A’uwe 'Rãpré – Xavante People.” This is a relevant topic for a cultural/autoethnographic study because it links the fire hunt ritual with the marriage ritual—both of which have existed for hundreds of years and are considered inseparable within A’uwe 'Rãpré (Xavante) culture. With the arrival of modern influences in our Indigenous villages—such as new teaching methods in schools and the introduction of mobile phones—many aspects of our culture have changed. This research is essential for preserving elements of our culture, highlighting the significance of the fire hunt in strengthening the A’uwe 'Rãpré (Xavante) way of life. The research was methodologically built through interviews with elders, whose memories enabled the autoethnographic writing of the text. Many stories were told by the elders, and some were witnessed by the researcher. The interviews were transcribed, as they represent valuable ancestral knowledge and lived histories.

This dissertation is justified by the need to create a record of the fire hunt and to provide schools with educational material, so that A’uwe 'Rãpré (Xavante) Indigenous teachers—or others—can work on this theme with their students. Oral tradition also undergoes a process of preservation when documented. Therefore, this study aims to understand the meaning of the fire hunt for the life and education of the A’uwe 'Rãpré (Xavante) people. The name A’uwe 'Rãpré (Xavante) means "red-headed warrior people," speakers of a Jê language. Since the time of our ancestors, our struggle has continued for the recognition of the fire hunt of the A’uwẽ Uptabi (Xavante) people. We hope this research can support teachers in working with this topic as a way to keep our people's identity alive.
