"Pioneering collection of articles on Brazilian indigenous history represents state-of-the-art research since topic became a central focus of ethnology in 1980s, and is principal product of the Núcleo de História Indígena e do Indigenismo research group coordinated by Cunha. Includes contributions by 30 leading specialists including archaeologists, linguists, historians, and anthropologists. Organized by region with separate sections on source materials and indigenous policy and legislation. Volume fills a major gap in South American ethnology and proposes new approaches and perspectives to study of ethnohistory. Richly illustrated and handsomely produced." — Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57

"A História canônica do Brasil começa sempre pelo "descobrimento". São os "descobridores" que a inauguram e conferem aos gentios uma entrada — mas uma entrada de serviço — no grande curso da História. Isto não é só desvantagem: em outros países da América Latina, o culto do passado pré-colombiano dissolve as identidades indígenas em um magma geral. Porque ter uma identidade é ter uma memória própria. É esta memória que arqueólogos, antropólogos, lingüistas e historiadores tentam aqui resgatar. A História do Brasil que assim emerge é mais complexa, mais rica, mais real."
