Representações rupestres no Piemonte da Chapada Diamantina (Bahia, Brasil)

Abstract

O objeto de estudo desta pesquisa são os sítios de representações rupestres do Piemonte da Chapada Diamantina. O problema inicial de investigação parte da discussão da noção de tradição na arqueologia brasileira e da sua aplicação nos estudos das representações rupestres no Nordeste do país. Este caminho levou a constatação de que os signos geométricos identificados são estudados de maneira parcial, em decorrência da dificuldade de apreensão de seus conteúdos e por dispor de formas representadas universalmente, argumento contrário a perspectiva de construção de cenários arqueológicos regionais. Na contramão desta compreensão, neste trabalho buscou-se verificar se os signos geométricos identificados no Piemonte apresentavam repertórios gráficos significativos, de maneira a se constituir como elementos para construção de cenários arqueológicos regionais. Para atingir este objetivo partimos para a observação da paisagem do Piemonte da Chapada Diamantina, quando levantamos dados sobre a sua conformação (geotectônica, geologia, geomorfologia, solos, hidrografia, clima, vegetação, paleopaisagem e uso atual), conduzindo à compreensão dos locais escolhidos pelos grupos humanos para a ocupação e entendendo os fatores que evidenciam a relação de reciprocidade entre o homem e o meio. Com esta base, estudamos os sítios rupestres, supondo existir significados subjacentes às pinturas e adotando a noção de gramática para análise das 49 jazidas arqueológicas levantadas. A partir desta perspectiva, foi possível indicar três perfis gráficos específicos para a região, provavelmente fruto de uma sucessão de momentos distintos de ocupação do território, dentre os quais o mais expressivo é formado quase exclusivamente por símbolos geométricos. A partir do estudo de caso é possível concluir que as representações geométricas constituem importantes fontes para construção de panoramas arqueológicos regionais, além dos dados possibilitarem induzir diretrizes específicas para a observação da região e, consequentemente, para a continuidade futura dos estudos arqueológicos no Piemonte da Chapada Diamantina.

The object of this research are the sites of rock art representations of Piedmont in Chapada Diamantina. The initial investigation problem of the discussion of the notion of tradition in Brazilian archeology and its application in the study of representations rock in the Northeast. This path led to the finding that the geometric signs are identified partially, due to the difficulty of understanding its contents and submit forms represented universally argument against the prospect of building regional archaeological scenarios. Contrary to this understanding, this study sought to determine whether the signs identified in Piedmont geometric graphs showed significant repertoire, so as to constitute elements for construction of regional archaeological scenarios. To achieve this goal we set for the observation of the Piedmont landscape of Chapada Diamantina, when we lift data on their conformation (geotectonic, geology, soils, hydrology, climate, vegetation, paleopaisagem and current use), leading to the understanding of the sites chosen by human groups for the occupation and understanding the factors that highlight the reciprocal relationship between man and environment. On this basis, we studied the cave sites, assuming there are meanings behind the paintings and embracing the notion of grammar for the analysis of 49 archaeological sites raised. From this perspective, it was possible to indicate three graphic profiles specific to the region, probably the result of a succession of distinct periods of occupation of the territory, among which the most significant is formed almost exclusively by geometric symbols. From the case study we conclude that the representations are important sources for construction of regional archaeological panoramas, plus the data make possible to induce specific guidelines for the observation of the region and, consequently, for the future continuation of archaeological studies in Diamantina Plateau Piedmont.
