Resumo
Tendo em vista as intensas pesquisas realizadas na área de pré-história e arqueologia, que buscam compreender a presença de antigos grupos humanos nas Américas, o presente trabalho volta-se para os registros rupestres do Seridó, analisando numa perspectiva da comunicação e das práticas ritualíticas em manifestação ao sagrado. Os estudos realizados até então sobre a temática, têm tido diferentes opiniões acerca desses registros, tanto em relação a sua finalidade quanto a sua interpretação. A região do Seridó, especialmente nos município de Carnaúba dos Dantas e Parelhas, apresenta uma rica quantidade de registros rupestres, e estando classificados dentro da Tradição Nordeste, possuem grafismos de ação que mostram, particularmente, a vida cotidiana de seus executores. As cenas de caça, dança, pesca e rituais demonstram como viviam esses grupos humanos e como eles interagiam com o ecossistema. Diante da necessidade de se comunicar e de demonstrar uma importância dada as suas ações cotidianas, esses grupos humanos realizaram tais pinturas em áreas especialmente escolhidas para esse fim, sendo estes na sua maioria, de caráter não habitáveis. Com isso, as pinturas rupestres nos levam a uma ótica de que tanto os grafismos quanto os locais onde estes se encontram possuem uma relação simbólica, e cujo significado impera sob a órbita do cotidiano.
In view of the intense research carried through the area of prehistory and archaeology, that they search to understand the presence of old human groups in Americas, the present work is turned towards to rock-art registers of the Seridó, analyzing in a perspective of the communication and the ritualistic practices in manifestation to the sacred. The studies carried through until then about the topic, have different opinions about these registers, as much in relation its purpose as well its interpretation. The region of the Seridó, especially in the city of Carnaúba dos Dantas and Parelhas, present a rich amount of rock-art, and being classified inside of the Northeast Tradition, possess graphisms of action that they show, particularly, the daily life of its executors. The hunting scenes, dance, fishing and rituals demonstrate as these human groups lived and as they interacted with the ecosystem. Ahead of the necessity of communicating and demonstrating to a given importance its daily actions, these human groups had carried through such images in especially areas chosen for this aim, being these in its majority, of character not inhabitable. With this, the rock-art takes us to an optics of that as much the graphisms as well as the places where these meet, possess a relation between the symbol and its meanings and its sanctity.
