only existing village is located on the right bank of
the Xingu River, within the Koatinemo Indigenous reserve,
legally demarcated and homologated in 1986. From 1972
to 1985, the village was located on the banks of the Ipiaçava
stream, tributary of the right bank of the Xingu. Asurini
gardens, hunting, fishing, and gathering places are situated
between the banks of the Xingu and Piranhaquara rivers
and the Piaçava stream. From time to time, they
go to the headwaters of the Xingu, where their ancient
villages were located (Mancin, 1979b:1-20). |
