Abstract

This article presents archaeological data for the debate - revisited in the Revista de Antropologia by Franciso Noelli, Eduardo Viveiros de Castro and Greg Urban - on a putative origin of the Tupí languages in the Central Amazon. We present here the preliminary results of the archaeological research we have been undertaking in the area of confluence of the Negro and Solimões rivers which seem not to support the archaeological premises of this model, first presented by Donald Lathrap in 1970.
