The purpose of this article is to analyze the trajectory of contact and compulsory removal, in the period of the Military Dictatorship (1964-1985), of two indigenous peoples that belongs to a jê linguistic family: the Tapayuna and the Panará. The contact of both people with the expansion fronts in the state of Mato Grosso, between the 1950s and 1970s, had a disastrous impact on their lives. They were victims of genocidal, ethnocide and territorial spoliation. They were compulsory removed to the Xingu Indigenous Park: the Tapayuna were transferred in 1970, the Panará in 1975. After 22 years, the Panará return to a portion of their traditional land. The Tapayuna, nowadays, are inspired by the Panará process, requesting for the recognition by the process suffered and to have back their territorial autonomy. The text presents the events lived by each people and discuss the possibilities of a justice of reparation in the country.
