This paper presents a kinship terms description of the Parkatêjê people. Nowadays there are two villages at Reserva Indígena Mãe Maria (RIMM), one at Km 30 of BR-222 and the other at Km 35, close to Marabá, on the same road. The Parkatêjê language belongs to the Timbira Dialect Complex, Macro-Jê stock, and has a very well elaborated kinship terms system, which includes blood and affinity relatives and a series dedicated to dead relatives. Besides, it is strongly influenced by the nomination system. The methodology used to research kinship terms consists of a bibliographical search of materials about the people and their language, Linguistics and Anthropology, and an ethnographical research to collect data on site.Downloads
