Resumo: From time to time, the Kalapalo and other upper Xingu people build special structures for their chiefs: large decorated houses for living chiefs, and special graves for deceased nobles - also conceived as their "houses". In this article I analyze how these structures keep a series of analogies with the chiefs' body model, trying to show how houses, graves and noble bodies aim, at different scales, a duality between humanity / consanguinity and animality / affinity. Based on a dialogue with Lévi-Strauss' formulations about the House, I argue that the Xinguan leadership is characterized by the synthesis of principles of unity and antagonism, whose objectification is a necessary part of the movement by which the Xingu groups differ and identify themselves in the regional system, providing the basis for the kinship process.

En este artículo analizo cómo estas estructuras guardan una serie de analogías con el modelo corporal de los jefes, tratando de mostrar cómo casas, tumbas y cuerpos nobles apuntan, a diferentes escalas, a una dualidad entre humanidad / consanguinidad y animalidad / afinidad. Partiendo de un diálogo con las formulaciones de Lévi-Strauss sobre la Casa, sostengo que el liderazgo xinguano se caracteriza por la síntesis de principios de unidad y antagonismo, cuya objetivación es una parte necesaria del movimiento por el cual los grupos Xingu se diferencian y se identifican. en el sistema regional, proporcionando la base para el proceso de parentesco.De tempos em tempos, os Kalapalo e demais alto-xinguanos constroem estruturas especiais para seus chefes: grandes casas decoradas para chefes vivos, e sepulturas especiais para nobres falecidos – também concebidas como suas “casas”. Neste artigo analiso como estas estruturas guardam uma série de analogias com o modelo de corpo dos chefes, procurando mostrar como casas, sepulturas e corpos nobres objetivam, em diferentes escalas, uma dualidade entre humanidade/consanguinidade e animalidade/afinidade. A partir de um diálogo com as formulações de Lévi-Strauss sobre a Casa, argumento que a chefia xinguana é caracterizada pela síntese de princípios de unidade e antagonismo, cuja objetivação é parte necessária do movimento pelo qual os grupos xinguanos se diferenciam e se identificam no sistema regional, oferecendo as bases do processo do parentesco.Universidade Estadual de Campinas2013-12-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionTextoTextoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/otherapplication/pdfhttps://econtents.bc.unicamp.br/inpec/index.php/tematicas/article/view/1147710.20396/tematicas.v21i42.11477Tematicas; v. 21 n. 42 (2013): Casas; 73-113Tematicas; Vol. 21 No. 42 (2013): Casas; 73-113Tematicas; Vol. 21 Núm. 42 (2013): Casas; 73-1132595-315Xreponame:Temáticas (Campinas.
