South American nomad: References & Edit History
Additional Reading
Kalervo Oberg, The Terena and Caduveo of Southern Mato Grosso, Brazil (1949, reprinted 1980), is a Smithsonian Institution monograph that includes an account of the Caduveo, a sub-tribe of the once-powerful Mbayá, while his Indian Tribes of Northern Mato Grosso, Brazil (1953, reprinted 1979), includes a short account of the Nambikwara. Allan R. Holmberg, Nomads of the Long Bow: The Siriono of Eastern Bolivia (1950, reissued 1985), is a useful study of these people, a good example of the forest nomads; it may be supplemented by Allyn MacLean Stearman, No Longer Nomads: The Sirionó Revisited (1987).
