| Sumario: | The result of a work of biographical nature, this article is the result of a research carried out for the conclusion of a Master's Degree. The present work aims to discuss the ways of inhabiting the Nukak forests. Inhabitants of the Colombian Amazon, in the interfluve of the Middle Guaviare and the Upper Inírida, their mother tongue belongs to the Makú-puinave linguistic group. In particular, addressing this issue through two thematic axes: planting - food production and disposal - vegetative generation. We realized that through daily practices and disposal activities and constant mobilizations, the Nukak promote a transformation of the landscape in which they live. Furthermore, we discuss in the following lines how a dwelling model that prioritizes movement can act as a catalyst for changes in the environment. Finally, we discuss how mobility is a possible form of interaction that involves inhabiting and transforming the forest, in the case of the studied group. |
