- W2554772009 abstract "Using literary references and field research data, this article describes and analyses the naming system used by the Pemon and their neighbours living in Venezuela, Brazil and Guyana. The importance of group names and associated meanings in colonial times and the consequent treatment of indigenous peoples is noted. The study shows that we today, need to determine exactly how a wide variety of names is used and which levels of structure these denote within a segmentary system of interrelationships. Autodenominations and global nicknames mark the maximal level of ethnic identity. Nicknames also denote a number of regional groups, which are major sub-divisions within the ethnic unity. At the local community level there is a range of environmental terms deriving from prominent topographical features, mountains and navigable rivers being pre-eminent. These levels of structure relate to the ownership of ancestral land and to resource use and they underpin the socio-political, linguistic and cultural relationships between and within a number of different ethnic groups. It is argued that the study of naming systems should be a prime consideration in any attempt to classify the indigenous peoples of Guiana and to understand the basic structures underlying daily life." @default.
