The objective of this study was to analyze through a critical review, the representations of indigenous childhood evidenced in the ethnographic records of Roquette-Pinto in the book: "Rondônia" (1919). In this ocasion, the author participated in the expedition in the Serra do Norte located at the time in the states of Amazonas and Mato Grosso, under the Rondon Commission. This reading mobilized the elaboration of this writing in view of the need to know aspects of the children/childhoods relations of the native populations at the beginning of the twentieth century. The methodological procedure adopted was the bibliographic research considering the possibilities theoretical depth and analytical review. The results indicated that the children mentioned by Roquette-Pinto were of two ethnicities: Pareci/Ariti and Nambikuara, peoples who had their territories cut off by the construction project of the Telegraph Lines and who today continue their struggles for the right to existence with dignity. It is concluded that Roquette-Pinto’s reflective notes on childhoods/children allow dialogical approaches to the Sociology of Childhood, Anthropology of Childhood in that they point out cultural specificities in these contexts and with Education through the inseparable relations between caring/educating. A contribution that can broaden the interdisciplinary and intercultural understanding of the theme, in addition to providing important elements about the different childhood productions and their repercussions on contemporaneity.
