Resumo: We discuss the important role of the feminist critique in bringing awareness to gender, childhood, and identity research, and in giving voice to the perspectives of underrepresented groups. As a case study of ancient social lives and gender, we discuss a range of Marajoara identity markers interpreted through the study of ceramic tangas (female pubic coverings) from Marajó Island in the Brazilian Amazon (A.D. 400-1400). There, tangas were made and used by women as a material representation of social position, gender, and individual identity. We argue that identity constitutes a fundamentally important aspect of archaeological research, and that the strongest case studies in identity are those that encompass a variety of gendered inferences to understand social lives of the past.

Como um estudo de caso sobre gênero e vidas sociais antigas, discutimos uma série de marcadores de identidade Marajoara interpretados através do estudo das tangas cerâmicas (coberturas púbicas femininas) na Ilha de Marajó, na Amazônia brasileira (400-1400 A.D.). Estes artefatos foram feitos e usados por mulheres como uma representação material de posição social, gênero e identidade individual. Argumentamos que identidade constitui um aspecto importante e fundamental na pesquisa arqueológica, e que seus mais sólidos estudos de caso constituem aqueles que abrangem uma variedade de inferências sobre gênero para compreender as vidas sociais no passado.Sociedade de Arqueologia Brasileira2017-12-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revista.sabnet.org/ojs/index.php/sab/article/view/54910.24885/sab.v20i2.549Revista de Arqueologia; Vol. 30 No. 2 (2017): Arqueologia e Crítica Feminista; 145-161Revista de Arqueologia; Vol. 30 Núm. 2 (2017): Arqueologia e Crítica Feminista; 145-161Revista de Arqueologia; Vol. 30 No 2 (2017): Arqueologia e Crítica Feminista; 145-161Revista de Arqueologia; v. 30 n. 2 (2017): Arqueologia e Crítica Feminista; 145-1611982-19990102-0420reponame:Revista de Arqueologiainstname:Sociedade de Arqueologia Brasileira (SAB)instacron:SABenghttps://revista.sabnet.org/ojs/index.php/sab/article/view/549/143Copyright (c) 2017 Fernanda Neubauer, Michael J.
