Abstract: Brief abstract written by HRAF anthropologists who have done the subject indexing for the document
This article aims to fill gaps and make corrections to an
existing classification of Karajá traits. There is general agreement on subsistence
economy and the sexual division of labor, but significant corrections are made regarding
settlement patterns and social organization. Emphasis is given to the kinship system
including descent, unilineal descent groups, family organization, and previously
unreported terminology (although no native kin terms are provided).
